Drowning in Silence

Can't you hear me
I'm calling out to you
Can't you hear me
Even though I'm silent
I'm drowning…
Drowning…

Can't you hear me
I'm crying out to you
Can't you hear me
I'm screaming for mercy
I'm drowning!
I'm drowning!
In a sea of red violence
Can't you hear me
I'm drowning in silence

Lift me high
Above all the terror
higher, higher
above my own silence
Lift me higher
until I escape myself
In your arms higher
so I don't drown again

Can't you feel me
I'm reaching out to you
Can't you see me
Even though my hands are invisible
I'm drowning!
I'm drowning!
In dead seas all alone
Can't you reach me
Please help me come home

Lift me high
Above all the terror
higher, higher
above my own silence
Lift me higher
until I escape myself
In your arms higher
so I don't drown again

Can't you touch me
See behind the mask I wear
Can't you help me
I'm crying your name, can't you hear
I'm drowning!
I'm drowning!
Back in the blood seas of pain
Can't you touch me
I'm drowning again

Lift me high
Above all the terror
higher, higher
above my own silence
Lift me higher
until I escape myself
In your arms higher
so I don't drown again

Can't you love me
You've become all my life
Can't you save me
My salvation lies only in you
I'm drowning!
I'm drowning!
But not any more, you're here
I see now how you love me
In your arms there's no fear

Lift me high
Above all the terror
higher, higher
above my own silence
Lift me higher
until I escape myself
In your arms higher
so I don't drown again

Lift me high
Above all the terror
higher, higher
above my own silence
Lift me higher
until I escape myself
In your arms higher
so I don't drown again

High in your arms
I will never drown again
