Sea Monster

Sea Monster by Supernova-Exploding

You’re sinking in now
The pressure is like quicksand
Suctioning you down
Until you don’t have the strength to stand

They’re like the tide
Pulling you out, sucking you in
They are the gentle, inviting tug of the waves
Their needle hands
Drawing you out to sea

Come, just come with us
Feel how refreshing it is to be free
You are a dolphin now
You’re not chained to the land

Beguiling
The moonlit beauty, the rippling foam
Hiding the threat of the depth just below
Careful, careful
Keep your head above the surface

It’s getting colder now
It’s harder to reach the air
The suction’s back again, ever pulling you down
But
This time, there is no bottom
There is no ground

Get a grip, get a grip

The smooth caress has turned to crushing hammers
The warm tickle to an icy vise
You want to let go; you can’t open your hand

Where have you gone?

They never knew it would be like this
They didn’t think it could happen to you
They took you to the beach for fun, for a day
One night of partying
One trip, just to play
They only looked away for a moment

They’re reaching out, you’re slipping into the dark
The tide has whisked you away.
