Fall to the depths,
Away with yourself!
You drown and try scream,
But not a soul hears your cry for help.

Sinking into the abyss,
There is much solitude in this.
As above, so below,
We remain alone.

From the void I pull myself,
As only I can do.
Yet as I surface,
So to do I begin to sink once more.

Somewhere along the road I lost my way.
I let the breeze take me through the mists,
And like the clouds I drifted away.

I fell to the mud,
Felt the darkness drench the light of my soul
As the barren trees curled overhead,
And I succumbed to the sorrow down the rabbit hole.

Finding myself in a place most strange,
I stumbled getting up,
Yet soon found it easy walking this way.
Onwards I strode,
And so much further I rode.

As the sun shone down,
I found my way upon this road.

Do you feel trapped?
Bound by your own fear?

Do you too fail yourself,
Before taking a chance at success?
Find yourself having a heart wrapped in the chains of a mind too fearful to risk a broken heart?

Too scared to feel,
Knowing what it's like to love,
Yet not knowing what it's like  to be loved.

I want to live on the high I feel
When I see you.
I want to fall into the skies,
That lay within your eyes.

Feel my heart flutter,
As my words stutter.
I can't help but be humbled by your grace.

Tired of living on a rollercoaster of a high,
Because I know it only lasts when I'm  by your side.
I'd rather lie in this pool of infinity,
Then be swept away by the endless tide.

Tread lightly on those with fragile hearts,
Broken before and bare the scars.

Slowly their heads do lower from the stars,
As shattered hearts make love feel barred.

These playful souls will still play your game,
And willingly fall all the same,
Hoping someday their heart is seen,
And someone takes claim.

I've gotten this far,
Who's to challenge my place
When I've fought or so long,
And fell victim to this state.

I'm up in the clouds,
The high's have never felt this low.
To reach for the stars,
Yet sit so far below.

I'm falling now,
Falling on the rise,.
Look deep,
You'll see the red in my eyes

I'm just too tired to do this anymore.
It hurts too much,
Seeming to me as if this painful journey isn't worth the destination,
No matter how beautiful.

Why risk a broken heart,
When i know that I'll never be given the chance.
Why step closer,
When i know I'll never get one dance.

It pains me,
That I should say love would not be worth it.
But it pains me more,
To have never had a mended heart.
