lyrics

I wake as if from dream
The precipice before me
Concrete water below
The void is calling for me

The ones who jumped realised half way down
That things weren't as bad as they seemed
They never needed to drown

The overpass at speed
A momentary vision
Of my self thrashed to dust
Free from this freezing prison

The pull of wretched black depths
Encased in layers of silt
A snap of the finger, resigned to dust
Embrace the peace of oblivion

"I cannot go on
My energy lost
Forging ahead is impossible
Each day it grows worse
I must heed the call
And plummet myself to oblivion..."

Never give up
Reach out and touch
Cling to the life gifted to you
Reach out for help
Hold on to hope
Shun thoughts of darkness that cloud you

A momentary lapse
A glimpse into darkness
File it away for some other time and retreat from the precipice

Ignore the call
Ignore the call of the void
Do not fall
Silence and rise above
Fight for your life
Fight for your life and stand tall
Just ignore
Forge through it all

Don't give up
Forge on!
