Bottomless Pit
Digging a grave forever
Making a bed to lie in
To never wake up
And never pull myself out
Closing my eyes to see the world
Seeing the storms over it
Watching it all burn away
The oceans spilling from my head
There is no solace
It all burns away
Getting hotter every second
Eating away at my brain
The heart decaying
My legs get weaker
Feeling everything until it's gone
The air is numbing
Breaking walls that hide nothing
Burning the bridges of the future
Slamming my head to stop the noise
The silent screams never end
I need a hand to pull me out
But I don't want to go
Nothing good can come from it
The path has been scrubbed away
There is nothing left to lose
But I still want to keep it
Staying in the pit of darkness
An endless hole I've fallen into
I feel like I'm diseased
Poisoned without a cure
Seeing a light that isn't there
There is no point chasing it
I've given myself up
I've let go of everything
There's nothing left
No reason to move
