he was my lifejacket,
(kept me afloat when I was too tired to swim)
except, now he is her lifejacket.
i'm in way over my head
and sinking fast.
i go deeper under the dark choppy surface;
the bright light is fading,
and everything is getting blurry.
i am calling out
i am screaming
can't he hear me?
no, of course he can't.
my mouth fills with water,
no sound is coming out.
please, please notice that i am gone
before i hit rock bottom.
(he doesn't even notice that i am dying…)
I am drowning.
you say they either love, or hate you
that I love or hate you,
and its true
there is a thin invisible line i walk
drunken in despair
its true
but i love you so,
that i hate to hate you.
its true
you hold me close
look into my eyes
and its true, that i love you
you say hurtful words
and call me names
and its true, that i hate you
i push you away
just to let you back in
its true
i sway from side to side
of the invisible line
its true
but the simple truth is, i hate not loving you.
Hey! I'm sorry I am so late. Yes I have been to Benin. I was in Lokossa for 3 months, 2 months in Sakété. I aslo visited Ouidah and grand-popo. And 2 weeks in Cotonou. It was such a cool experience ! What brought you to Benin? Enjoyed it ?
