Going Under
Falling, crashing
Tonight I’m going to lose it all
Playing with fire I was the first to fall

Shadows burning, flames giving way
Fiery, destructive
Chaotic and fierce
Soon ashes will turn to dust

Dragging me down
Filling me with self-doubt
Barely breathing, suffocating
Trapped, trying to get out

At the end of my emotions
Enveloping me like a shroud
Consumed, vulnerable, alone
I’ve lost my way through it all

We once blazed so bright
I wanted to touch you to such a great extent
Encircled by the heat we generated
Only to be in my own little fantasy

You fulfilled all I desired
I fulfilled all that you craved
We shared our darkest secrets
That was your truth, my mistake

Fantasy and reality enmeshed into one
Bound by my own insecurities
Beyond touch, beyond reach
There’s a fire burning in my soul

The writings on the wall, it’s too late
I would be lying if I said I wanted to go
Illusions cloud reality, clarity comes with pain
A fire burning in my bones, it’s time to walk away

I won’t be lost forever
I’ll find my way
Until the raging flames die down
And glowing embers melt away

I will not Go Under
I will burn bright
With a spark, it once started
With a fire, it all ended
