I
Reddish skies
foreshadow this day
everything is worthwhile
and the nights are never cold
City lights invite me
to embark on quests of fate
I open up myself to the world's
warm embrace
Sensuality pervades in everything i see
i live upon this plateau
so high above the sea
everything's great, but goddammit
bliss is boring
i've gotta take a plunge
take a try for something more
II
there's no hope here
nothing but fear
why did i ever jump?
i can't believe i lost
everything i worked so
slackingly to gain
i'm such a fucking imbecile
to have left my sanity
for the rain
i'm soaking wet
freezing out my sweat
my skin prickles at the touch
of the darkness in my head
i've lost everything
there's no gaining it again
the sable pervades
everything's so vain
i'm never finding my way out again
but i'll keep searching for the way
even if it drives me insane
III
creatures slither inside of my blackness
where am i?
where are you?
i can't tell up, down, falling, spinning, swimming, drowning, life, death, ripeness, decay, beauty, ugly
the bottom
keeping me afloat
on a thin rope
walking a tight wire
guitar string
falling me
failing me
distressing you
you...me...where could it be?
the weather's so nice in this hole
the sounds of perversion have sunken so low
untileverythingisnothingiseverythingisnothingiseverythingisnothingiseverythingisnothing
