I'm drowning again,
sinking deeper and deeper
while the water closes in above my head.
I'm trying to swim back to the surface
but it's no use.
A chain around my foot is pulling me down.
Soon I reach the bottom of the sea
and all I can do is wait ...
Will the pain get to much
and the oxygen will run out,
or
will the pain stop
and the chain will release me,
so I can swim back up for oxygen?
