Unhallowed Deliverance - Bottomless Pit
00
Copied!
I found a hole in my garden where no neighbour sees
Six inches wide, fully blackened even in daylight
"Might be a mule", I thought, to quell the vague sense of unease
Which a few nights later then turned into full blown fright
It just grows now, swallowed up my lawn whole
At its rim I stood and gazed down into the voiceless gloom
Try and dig till the break of dawn
Still ever bigger from my window see it loom
Mere soil won't do!
Cast knowledge, theories, all your truth
Learn, lеarn, push on through
All my brains and all my youth
For youth I had in spades still, and girls were thеre as well
With skin like silk, eyes like fountains, laps, oh, so warm
And souls so pure
They made some sounds as they fell
Yet to my greed they were no cure
Next, I amassed assets, pricey shares and richness
Pour them down with tallest engines
Loan my soul out to crank up business
Invest the profit into sumptuous pensions
Letting the neighbours witness
Leaving behind my apprehensions
Drown the hole in vanities
All that shines and all that's new
All my childhood fantasies
Lose their taste the longer I chew
The neighbourhood was eaten by the hole while I
Resort to chemicals to channel down my aimless wrath
Phenylethylamines, hydroxyl groups and benzodiazepines
Feed its maw, my deliquescing soul, my only path
Afore the chasm alone I stand
A mirror for the sky to the horizon extends
It all just fell, widening instead of darning
Maybe if I had let it, it'd stayed six inches wide
Over this here void, there will surely break no morning
Close my eyes and take ahead a single stride
Six inches wide, fully blackened even in daylight
"Might be a mule", I thought, to quell the vague sense of unease
Which a few nights later then turned into full blown fright
It just grows now, swallowed up my lawn whole
At its rim I stood and gazed down into the voiceless gloom
