Down

Location

Oh, the days are getting longer it seems.
This technology is getting smarter than me!
Now the sun seems much stronger than the breeze,
This heat will bring my closed mouth to speak.
 
Here we go, my cover's blown,
Yes! I care about you much more than you know.
 
But, you say, "I have time," like you can hold it?
"I need love," like you really know it?
Then, you ask me where I think we're going?
Well, I think we're going down. 
 
How psychotic is one mind, to think it knows all there is to life!
How precarious that it rips at the skin of its own eyes?
I too am breaking down, due to expectations to achieve 
The pressure that I bear, will make my closed mouth very weak.
 
Here we go, my cover's blown,
Yes! I care about you much more than you know.
 
But, you say, "I have time," like you can hold it?
"I need love," like you really know it?
Then, you ask me where I think we're going?
Well, I think we're going down. 
 
The tangible thought,
That we know all we 'ought,
Oh, how I pray and ache for you a lot!
Yes, I hope that the clock,
Will bring failures too rot,
And that you will be forced to do as you taught!
A respecting, kind setting,
and fear thats upsetting!
All you know, it should show, science is just a heading.
All believe and agree,
That all will soon leave!
Oh my dear God I hope you then you'll see!
Oh my dear god we're more than degrees!
Oh my dear god I hope you come with me!
Oh my dear god I hope you believe!
 
To go down you must pay,
But to go up for you's free.
