The Abyss
Falling....tumbling.....
Down....into the abyss
Born as Satan's child
Innocents gone....
Tainted view of life
Injustice.....
Leaving the fallen child
To drown....
Falling further now...
Grasping onto the wet rocky walls
Fingers bleeding.....
Oh please save me
Please someone hear my cries......
This dull, numbing pain growing
Please...make it go away
Pools of fire drip off my arms
Please understand.....
Listen to me....
I will tell you my darkness
Just listen.....
Sounds echo.....
.....no one is there
No one to save me....
No one to hear
I want to let go....
...of the wet slippery wall....
...that I am holding on so hard....
...for nothing
I might as well let go
And let the darkness of death have me
The darkness wants me....
It is calling me.....
...they say knowledge is power....
I know where that darkness will lead....
....but I don't care
Weakening to it's power
It's medicine for life....
Blood pooling off my arm....
....to just stay numb...for one more day
One more day that I can live....
...one more day to hold onto the wall....
It's pointless
I can't climb up on my own....
...but I am alone.....
...terrified......
I want to just let go....
...and let the darkness of death have me
