The Descent
by Patrick Mulvihill
Gnashing
around me
Razors
so deadly
Dodging
and splashing
Slipping,
I'm falling
So
hungry, they’ll bite me
Only
one exit
Swollen,
this pipeline
Slipping,
I’m falling
Then,
the chorus sings despair
Orphan
organs cry for air
Fears
abundant
No
courage left
Down
the staircase without steps
Slide down the rabbit hole. (But a wide-mouthed bear is
waiting)
Just hold your breath and you’ll be fine. (No - I don’t trust
you)
You’re safe in this cradle, believe me. (Well, I have to.
What choice is there?)
Yes! Now look up and tell me what you see…
Oh,
pulsing in time
A
heart much bigger than mine
Tempo
One-Fifty
Beating
just for me
Oh,
Salvage your mind
And
sway with this beat so divine
Burning
minor key
Unlock
the gate, slip free.
I
will see you through this maze
Take
my hand, I'll lead the way
Because
I’ve always known this place
A
nightmare world that I create
I
will find the exit sign
Rip
the red gates open wide
When
this phobia will die
We'll
fill our lungs and see the light
The
gates are open wide
Take
my hand, I'll save your life
Follow
me down, down, down.
