Elapsed Euphoria Songtext

von Amarante

The sunset lured us in with its orange glare
Eyes blind
Senses on fire
We threw our tired bodies into the ocean
Head first
Master was gone and we were free
Floating
The current threw our limbs together
Beat the air out of our lungs
Arms tightened
Tumble became embrace;
Light passed between us
Locked in contentment
We hadn't noticed that day had quickly become night,
That the waves had begun to knock harder against us
Telling us to get out
But it seemed we could float forever
That fresh air would always be just above
Ready to receive thirsty souls
Then, I felt my ankle catch on a rock
It pulled me down,
And I bled into the water
Tugging and pulling
I tried to break free
But I knew it was impossible
I would have to fall
And so I did.
