The Drop That Drowns

drop by drop I melt away
drop by drop day by day

drop by drop to the ground
drop by drop without a sound

drop by drop in a haze
drop by drop the world decays

drop by drop into the night
drop by drop out of sight

drop by drop the sun will see
drop by drop no more of me

drop by drop rain will fall
drop by drop not at all

drop by drop the sea will swell
drop by drop in the well

drop by drop I drown below
drop by drop who would know

drop by drop no holds in sight
drop by drop filled with fright

drop by drop I try to swim
drop by drop I cannot win

drop by drop my mind fades out
drop by drop with barely a shout

drop by drop I breathe it in
drop by drop into my skin

drop by drop I struggle more
drop by drop to find the door

drop by drop the waters flow
drop by drop I watch them go

drop by drop I feel the pain
drop by drop I am insane
