I'll never be saved
The darkness surrounds me
The light grows faint
I'm falling endlessly
Engulfed in pain
I can feel the cooling touch
The air whisps by
Falling into this abyss
I soon become blind
I don't know where I'm going
I've lost the will to go on
Down this dark path
For something I've done wrong
Just wish I could leave
Just wish I'd wake up
But something whispers to me
"no need to rush"
Smoke surrounds me
As I breathe it in
I've turned back to the drugs
turned back to the sin
I feel someone reaching for me
Trying to grab hold
Trying to free me
To win back my soul
I suddenly think,
maybe I'm saved
But even if I wake it out
I'll never be saved
