I already know what's going to happen.
I had a dream,
and everything matches up.

I've seen this happen before.
I've loved before,
and I've lost.

I'm not afraid,
but I'm kind of scared.
Too lose your touch,
is something I can't bare.

I'm shivering,
lips quivering,
as I imagine,
life without you love.
I'm not strong enough.

And I fall,
down, I fall.
As the floor gives way,
beneath my feet,
I fight to hold on,
but I'm too weak,
and I fall.
I fall.

I should be use to losing hope,
but I keep fighting,
and I don't know why.

Clawing my way back to the top,
only to fall,
down.

I'm weak when I'm strong,
I can barely crawl.
I lose sight of light,
and I quietly fall.
Into the darkness.

And I fall,
down, I fall.
As the floor gives way,
beneath my feet,
I fight to hold on,
but I'm too weak,
and I fall.
I fall.

I fall,
into the darkness,
into the abyss,
into nothing.
