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

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
