Drag them with you

They took and took Never looking to see if there would be anything left That fire that once shown so bright Nothing but a husk of an ember Yet they continue to try taking Nothing left but ashes Still they take but now they choke I’m nothing but dust now But they choke They cry As tears run from their eyes It seems they took too much I turned to poison in their throats Sunk into their souls and made them fill with rot How sweet the sight I may have rotted to nothing but at last I’m dragging them down with me and the plummet is a sight beautiful beyond compare
