Down, Down, Down

Stop the madness
Alert the press
I’m finally coming down
To take control
Of a life worth living
I’m finally coming...
Down
Where I was 
Dark
Disgusting
With the worms
I was really down 
The days were droll
The nights depressing
Half awake
Half dead 
Below sanity
Below shame
Under the influence 
Out of control
I’m finally coming down 
Stop the madness 
Kill the monster
Lock it in a box forever
Sink it down into the ocean
Down
Where I was 
Dark
Disgusting 
To stop the madness 
So I can finally come down
