The Descent Lyrics

As we descend

Down into

This black hole

Together

Hands clasped

Escaping the past

Beauty's what we see

The light at the end

Still this locomotive

Is chasing back there

We run as fast

As our legs hold

We feel this pressure

We can't move slow

The light grows brighter

The sound grows louder

We lock eyes

Determined

And look straight ahead

The end

It is near

The tunnel grows silent

We jump straight

Off the edge

And fall

For the rest

Of time

An infinite descent

At least I know now

That's what you meant

When you

You wrote this story so clearly

As an escape

From anxiety

As we both

Look back

See things

As they were

Still running forwards

Escaping nightmares

Sanity's what we seek

We've all been there

Afraid of the dark

And only had ourselves

We'll embrace

The descent

We know by now

Things grow

In cycles

And then you hit the ground

I've seen the worst

But that was your first

Dark room you had to

Find your way out

When you

Were young

You never knew what was going on

As we descend

I was the one

Holding your hand
