Long Way Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Find myself within
Darkness twisting me around
There is nothing I can done
This world doesn't spin
It just turns itself around
And around The night chokes tight
In the nerves
Can't breathe to scream
Long way down
Suffocating in this dream
Long way down
Long way down
Long way down
Losing all I know
Hope is dreamt and lost
Walking a tight rope, bound to slip
Sound is a twisted lullaby
Touch is the slice before the blood
Soon, something's got to give in
Can't lose control
Remember to focus (to focus)
So I can find my way out
Can't breathe to scream
Long way down
Suffocating in this dream
Long way down
Long way down
Long way down
Don't give up the life
Using every last breath
Escaping the long way down
