Falling Through Hell

I’m falling through hell

Here we go again

I’m chilled to the bone

In a world of eighteen thousand degrees

I’m falling away

One last look at that darkening sky

Wish I could have said goodbye

Yet I still wonder why

What made the floor drop beneath me

Sending me further and further away

From where I was meant to stay

In the arms of those I loved

And amongst those who cared

About whether I lived or died

Did no one wonder why?

So here I am… alone

Falling through the depths of hell

Will I see them again?

It’s dark once more

The fire’s finally gone

But what’s left in its place is worse

Since it was all I had

And now I’m here alone

Just me, myself, and I

No longer with the sky

A few tears caress my face

But I brush them all away

What use do tears have for me

When I’m falling through hell?

A light opens from above

Offering warmth that comforts and consoles

I’m no longer falling through hell

Hell’s now falling through me

I leave it carrying with me a threat

That it’ll be back for me another day

To finally tear me apart

Until I’m too far gone to save
