I made it.

I made it. 
I made it to the peek of destination
I made it not by myself
With you in front of me to pull me up
You could of dropped me
I shook in your hold
But look at me now
Look at the clouds 
and there lies my soul. 
I made it.

I made it up
When people said I would fall
I made it up
Look at me now! So tall am I now!
I made it up here in the sky
My arms spread wide
I feel I can fly
But I ain't no bird
As human, jumping means falling
And falling means crawling
And I'm staying standing
Out here on the peek of authority
On the peek of life
On the peek of it all
With you by my side 
I stand here tall. 

Then the majestic scene turns dull
And you bash 
those drugs inside your skull
Your blank eyes cast downward 
as you take a leap off the cliff 
you'd pulled me up upon.
I scream and try
To catch you as you descend downward
But I don't wish to sink to the level
Of which you have fallen to. 
To pick you up I must crouch down
And if I crouch will I be strong enough
To stand?
I watch in despair 
as you ignore my screams
Then a whisper 
Flies up in the wind
Originating from your open mouth

Chorus:
Sink not to the level of which
I've fallen
Cry not over my broken soul
Don't follow these footsteps 
Of my damned heart
Don't ever envy my fall
Remember me as the man
Who lifted you to the skies
Remember and never regret
Don't look for me
For I fear what you'll see
Remember and never forget

I'm crying, I'm begging
I'm screaming, I'm bartering
With god to release you
From Satan's choke hold.
He laughs so bitterly
Then spits in my face
With words that burned holes
In my soul, no replace
He yells in my ear 
the words of my lover
The words he had spoken
Before he had fallen
They're beautifully carved
And immaculately cared for
By who?

Chorus

If god won't release you
And I can't release you
And you won't release you
Then who will i turn to?
Turn from right shoulder to left
And crawl heavily to the edge
Whisper over the edge
Take my soul instead!
Hear the low-belly chuckle
Smell the ugly stench of death
I Close my eyes and see your face
Who knew this would be where it ends?
