Down

I trapped behind these walls Tumble them down I pounding on these walls Please hear me Please don’t let me fall In to the dark Help me I’m falling Into such sorrow I hear echoes of your voice They follow me down Taunting as I fall Spiralling down Emotions around my neck Drown me Drowning in my tears No one to save me At the bottom of this well I can only go down Holding onto my breath Don’t let me drown Fighting with my thoughts Cutting you out I will not die here No one to morn me This freezing cold water Chills my heart This dark ice water Reaches my heart I’m so god damn cold I will not give in The echoes of your voice A growing dim As the soft light grows I start to rise As my lost hope grows I open my eyes I see the bright blue sky I am alive You almost killed me But I am alive
