Descent of a Fool

My eyes are wide open But I have no mercy left to give You'll be alone on your own Learn to swim if you want to live I won't preach another sermon You never listened to me I'm not the one who's confused You're killing yourself. Why can't you see? Curse me, curse me It's what you always do Put the blame on me You don't have a clue it's you I offered you my hand Mercy and love I gave But you refused and fell again You deceive yourself; a fool I can't save Go ahead, feast on your poison Feast until it kills your soul If it's death you are seeking I won't watch you descend into that hole Curse me, curse me It's what you always do Put the blame on me You don't have a clue it's you Let it course through your veins Let it fill your mind with its kiss You're drowning in a whirlpool It's pulling you down into the abyss I won't waste my time cursing you You've sunk as low as you can Keep asking for mercy until you die I hope you make it, you foolish man I should curse myself For holding on so long Holding on to the man you used to be You turned your back on me. That was wrong Curse me, curse me Swear at me once more before I go I won't hear you when I'm gone You're just someone I used to know ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: May 3rd, 2016 Rob Carmack's Lyrics II Contest Based on "Descending" by The Black Crowes
