the fall

there is a pathway to descend
into the memories that are locked away
but you can't try to save and mend
the things you so easily broke yesterday

read my lips: they tell you a story
watchclosely, mirrored one before you stray
diverge from the ones you want only the glory
and avoid the pain that comes in the way

it is a holy fall, my own downward spiral
don't you know the value of ignorance
embrace the shadow and welcome the viral

forget then the virtues, put them aside
who says there's no warmth in darkness
never made a nest in it when to hide

fall...
fall...
fall...
fall.
