Down
How did this happen?
Nothing even matters anymore.
There is no hope. There is no joy.
All I see is you. I hate it. You're
Bringing me
d
o
w
n
And I can't get back up. I feel
Like I'm falling. I feel like I'm
Drowning. I don't have enough
Oxygen in my lungs to scream
For help. You're bringing me
d
o
w
n
And I just keep falling. I don't
Have the energy to stop myself
From bleeding. You tell me "I
Will be there for you," and you're not.
You're nothing but a liar but I love
You anyways. I'm going
d
o
w
n
And I hate it. I just want to smile
Again. I just want there to be some
Light in my eyes again. I want to breath.
I want to sleep. But you won't let me.
You suffocate me just by looking at me.
My heart no longer beats. I'm falling
d
o
w
n
This pit. I don't want to live like this.
I always feel like shit, but I won't allow
Myself, or anyone else, to blame you
For the Hell you put me through. I cannot
Get over you. You were so cruel. You're
Bringing me
d
o
w
n
And I still want you. You're burning me
Out, yet I still hold a flame for you. You've
Left me in doubt. I know you were never true,
But I spend all my time wishing you were.
You called me a whore. I am still yours. I am
Falling

And I'm not even trying to save myself
Anymore. I give up. I give in. You win. Please,
Don't let me live. Kill me so you can get
What you want without hurting me again. All
I want is to see you happy. I want to see you
Smile. That's the only thing I think about,
Even as you drag me
d
o
w
n
I still love you. I wish I could tell you to
Go to Hell. You hurt me. You healed me.
Only to hurt me again. Do you like to
Watch me fall? You can do it again and
Again if you want. Go ahead, shove me to
The ground. Watch me fall
d
o
w
n
I will come right back around. I'll be there
Even if all you want is to hurt me. I don't care
What happens to me. I will drown for you.
I will go
d
o
w
n
For you. I love you. I need you. I will plead
For you. I will be there if you want me. Even
If all you want is to see me fall
d

d

d

I'll let myself plummet. I will give you
Everything. I will crawl right back. I feel
Sick. You make it worse. I am still, and
Always will be, yours. You know that. You
Use me. You say you love me. Then, you
Turn it around and you push me back
d
o
w
n
And I stay down. I'll take your misery. I
Will let you kill me. I will be anything
You want me to be. I'll be your punching
Bag, your best friend, or your whore. I
Am used to it. I don't think anymore. I
Don't want anything else. So, knock me
d
o
w
n
And I will still be whatever you want me to
Be. If you ask, I'll be nothing but a stranger.
Or, I'll give in to your anger. If you ask me I
Shall give it to you. I don't want to live anymore.
Where did all my happiness go? I think you
Took it from me, but I don't remember how. I
Remember falling
d
o
w
n
But not losing all the joy in me. I didn't use
To have all this misery filling up the holes
In me. I wasn't always only pieces. I met you,
I fell for you, and you let me fall
