You see the serpent rising
You say death is in sight
I'm not ready for it
I will put up a fight
Its time I learned to swim
Its time to take it all in
everything that I've learned
everything that I've earned

Don't tell me I'll die in the water
Its not time for me to drown
You're convincing me
I'll die in the water
I feel myself being pulled down
I'm dead in the water

I'm spun around
in a whirlpool of death

We see the tide rising
You say Hell is in sight
I refuse to believe that
I'll swim towards the light
Its time I learned to swim
Don't tell me to give in

Don't tell me I'll die in the water
Its not time for me to drown
You're convincing me
I'll die in the water
I can feel myself being pulled down
I'm dead in the water
