Down

-Down-

Down
We all must go
Losing control
A weight around our necks
Certain, absolute death
The crushing pressure
Forcing our hand
With steady strength
We stood at the edge
We did what it took
Devoid of all regret
Such incapable shits
Unable to truly live
With all that we have done
Into forever’s wilderness
We felt we had to go
So far down, so deep
That we will never be found
Because no one that is left
Would ever suspect
They we were as capable
As we are to do such
A terrible thing to ourselves
It is not suicide
For us such a thing is obscene
It is escapism on a grand scale
There can be nothing else
There is no other way
There never has been
Trust the reality of gravity
Just as we did
Because in due time
It will pull all of you down…
