Further Than Down
I got taught that demons were these evil beings
Full of hate and sin
And they are but so are we
they used to be human
just like you and me
No one gave them a second chance
They all just went mad
They lost their humanity
they lost the path
They all fell down lower
into the pits of hell
Flames pilled high
Smoke acts like clouds in the sky
Ash is like the oxygen in our lungs
Just know that the most common sin we all have
It would most likely be Greed
It is easy to long for more
For better
You get worse as you go
We all want what's best
Sometimes we want it a little too much
We get it
then it gets plucked
right out of our very hands
Just out of reach
Get a grip
You can't
If I die
I want to try
To go further down
Then even the Devil himself
So that he can't reach me
as he did with my soul
Just out of reach
He can't get me now
