Your hands gripped onto the metal bar so tight Squeezing hard with all of your might Clutching desperately this heavy bar of lead While trying to keep above water your sinking head
I try to prise free your frantic grasp But this piece of steel you will not unclasp Your fingers stubbornly refuse to yield No matter how much power I try to wield
Please let go of this bar that is dragging you down Please let go, it is making you splutter and drown Please let go, then you will swim so freely Please let go, you will glide through the water so easily
