staircase

traded your wings of gold for a lost prophet who stole your soul

fell into the writhing pit as upon his throne he did sit

all your hopes crushed under the laughter forgot the dreams you were after

head bowed and trembling hands you took the journey of the damned

shivering from the cold that never leaves guilt is your disease

pawned the promise of another day now the darkness is here to stay

now the storm rages inside and your only wish is to just die

you cut but never too deep all you do is just embrace the pain as you weep

stumbling along like the blind dreaming of a little sunshine

knives and razors your only friend your sweet friend till the end

you climb the spiral that goes nowhere here you are is why your there
