Grasping the Air

Nothing left there You may only grasp the air Your personal Satan is near May he have you cowered in fear Miserable and pointlessness so close Sucking the life from life itself You aren't holding on anymore Falling out into the fire red door When the light in your eyes has faded And your life has forever been shaded You can't bear to think of where you may perish Nor the fact that you're hurting the one's whom you cherish Close your eyes with all your might Say good-bye to the world's sunlight Let the numbness overcome your brain Embrace all of the sickening pain Your emotions are nude and raw And forever you shall fall You may only grasp air There is nothing left there...
