He couldn't hold his breath much longer, he struggled, he could see the sunlight, but he couldn't reach it and his mouth opened and he felt the water clog his lungs and run down his throat. He was choking and he could stop it.

Even as a ghost he couldn't break free of the cold, wet hands of his death. He couldn't go home.
