50 fathoms below.
50 more to go.

Drifting into the blue.
Loss has a pretty hue.
Caught in a current strong.
The whales sing their song.

Calling out without a voice.
We didn't fall down here by choice.
Do we drown or do we smother?
Jumping from one grave to another.

100 fathoms down.
The ripples gather round,
above our heads.

Streaming light azure,
make us reassured
that we're alive.

Are we alive or just breathing?
Wrote this song around the theme of a person, or persons, falling into the sea, trying to escape from the pressures of life - make of it what you will.

Hear the song here.
