"III. "Sinking", Pt. 2" lyrics

"III. "Sinking", Pt. 2"

I'm resigned to my fate
The red from my flares
Is no longer there in the sky
Say goodbye
Tried to turn a little late
Now in slow motion
I watch as the ocean comes in
Hello, friend

I know that I am sinking slowly
But the water's kinda nice
When your heart's already ice

Now it's up to my knees
When I kneel to pray
The fish swim away to my room
They'll own it soon
There's a strange kind of peace
As what's left of my life
Finally dives under waves
To water graves

I tried to sail beyond my sorrow
But the pain just stowed away
You told me everything would be okay

Sometimes bad things happen to good people
That's what my friends said, but this was evil
An Armageddon of my whole world
Who could let fall an earthen angel?
And I'm sorry I couldn't save you
Didn't matter what God I prayed to
Was it my fault? Or the One that made you?
Or the doctors who watched it break you?

I'm holding on to broken pieces
Like I held to you
Guess all that's left to say is see you soon
