Below the Low

It's going to be a different day
Maybe even a good one
Listening to the radio
"This is the day your life will surely change"
I feel so torn since I was born
Life is easy when you set your death point
by your own theory
I'm wondering how many layers are there in depression
As I look to the window
Hearing Christine sing to Eric
Daydreaming of going away in a three mast ship
In a blink of an eye I could cross the threshold
My intriguing scene shakes me
Below the low 
here it comes
Sinking oh no not again,God help me in my need 
to feel complete
Playing with diamond cards
But the joker always knows what's on your mind
Voilins are playing in my darkest hour
And the sweetest melody  I hear is from the musical figurine
That plays on..
