When life becomes a sea of pain

And every moment agony

I must endure again, again,

It is a curse to have to be.



And every moment agony,

And every longing fixed on death;

It is a curse to have to be

And fight by instinct for each breath.



And every longing fixed on death

Even as I must go on

And fight by instinct for each breath,

Sailing thus, though loved, alone.



Even as I must go on,

You watch me helpless from the shore;

Sailing thus, though loved, alone,

I need you with me all the more.



You watch me helpless from the shore

As I endure again, again;

I need you with me all the more

When life becomes a sea of pain.
