Don't Look Down
Lyrics
I've been scratching at the surface so long that I lost my purpose
And even though you tell me that it'll all be fine I'm getting nervous
And I've never been the type to just jump into a situation
But blindly I did so and so violent the winds blow
I'm lost in my head the graveyard where the dead goes
There's demons underneath my feet the reasons why I never sleep
The voices tell me don't look down cause if I fall my souls for keeps
But if I do and I'm consumed then all I ask is pray for me
The more that you know the end will only get farther
I'm up on the ropes of psychological carnage
What do you know I never wanted a conscience
Guess that's why they always said
Don't look down
Don't look down
You know it only gets harder
A dying light
I'm not alright
Beginning to end and I feel that I've lost my fight
I'm not a man I'm a grain of sand
Dropping down into the hourglass keeping time with the second hand
I've rolled them bones
So the story goes
I popped until my body itched
And smoked until my face was lit
And now I've got this fucking hitch
And there ain't no way of solving it
Swear to God I'm fucking sick
But I'ma take my time to die for this
The more that you know the end will only get farther
I'm up on the ropes of psychological carnage
What do you know I never wanted a conscience
Guess that's why they always said
Don't look down
Don't look down
You know it only gets harder
I'm a broke motherfucker but at least I got a job
Even when I had nothing I was still getting robbed
Enemies dressed as friends with secret identities
Just like public entities begging for amenities
Saying here I'll be nice give me all your money please
A disorderly world yeah that is all I see
From birth to decease I keep my head to the sky
Afraid if I look down I won't like what I find
The more that you know the end will only get farther
I'm up on the ropes of psychological carnage
What do you know I never wanted a conscience
Guess that's why they always said
Don't look down
Don't look down
You know it only gets harder
The more that you know the end will only get farther
I'm up on the ropes of psychological carnage
What do you know I never wanted a conscience
Guess that's why they always said
Don't look down
Don't look down
You know it only gets harder
