The Slope
For when you're throwing it all away for revenge
Slip slide down
The inevitable slope
With your hands out in the darkness
For a handhold you will grope
But the slip is not an option
The slide is just a truth
And despite your desperate searching
There is no way out for you
I've waited at the edge of this
Alone for quite some time
Guiding you along your path
Until your path was mine
You thought you saw the light ahead
'Twas I that held the curtain
You fought for what you thought well earned
But all suns set for certain
Realization sinks into your chest
Like teeth beneath your skin
Squirming in with sharper bite
You remember where they've been
It's easy now
You recognize
The reason for
Familiar eyes
Now your hands are trapped tight in mine
I'll bring us down the slope
