Learn to Survive

Cry for the loss of your mother, your brother
Oh, Cry for the loss of you dear little sister
And Cry for the loss of your sweet one and only
Please, Cry for the loss of everything good

What you love has been taken away from you
The flood waters foretold of came a year too soon
There is nothing left here worth retrieving
Before you drown, too, at least try and save yourself

Lear to swim, learn to fly, learn to breath underwater
The knowledge will grant you the sweet life again
As long as you want to can try to tread water
Monsters swimming underfoot will surely bring you down with them

Learn to fight, learn to live, learn to keep them away from you
The knowledge will keep you alive one day longer
As long as you want you can try to swim to the shore
Weak and weary bones have never made it very far
