Fallen to the bottom
Of a mile deep well
Tomorrow seems only
Like a distant hell
Bones broke in silver light
And thoughts begin to falter
As I try to keep my head above the water
Tell me God, if this' your glare
Why I'm in despair
I pray to you
But you're not there
And I'm running out down here
Of air
Does death always come with acclaim?
Or did I put your name to shame?
Walk this earth
And die on it
It's the marrow of life
Not to flee from
What's certain
It is a heavy burden
Only you can erase your pain
Realize you have nothing to gain
From none of your possessions
Only retrogression
