All or nothing
Brick by brick, please don’t slip
Fingers grasping tighter now
Harsh gasp as the stones cut deep
Look down between your feet
Why do all those people staring look like sheep?
Heads turned up and mouths agape
Silent cheers and little sneers, tearing eyes
Fall, fall there all waiting for it
Another step upwards
You’re on your way, hold tight now don’t forget
This moment there can be no regret
Teeth grit hard as the blood runs down your wrist
It feels good doesn’t it, hot and slick
Just of bit more of this messed up ****
The brinks in sight fingers grasp tight
Another step onwards upwards
Brick by brick as stones cut deep
Look at all those people like mulling sheep
Sharp laugh pulled up and over, other hands are grasping tight
Over the wall you tumble free at last
The sheep have passed
Eyes no longer cheering, calling, tearing in those silent voices
Fall... fall... fall

Over the wall you tumble free at last
The sheep have passed
Eyes no longer cheering, calling, tearing in those silent voices
Fall... fall... fall
