Falling from the skylight~
My misery is keeping me right
A path I must fight
Or else I lose sight
Of everything in life

She took it all back
Forcing my heart to turn into black
Like an abyss
so deep and dark its dangerous
And I fell in it
For so long I didn't
Even realize
The river from all the tears I cried

Falling from the skylight~
My misery is keeping me right
A path I must fight
Or else I lose sight
Of everything in life
This time
I couldn't stop it no matter how hard I tried
In my mind this is the only thing that could seem all right

Therapy
It all sounds the same to me
Gibberish
With a little bit of helpful tweet
that goes
Unrecognized to the ears
I'm stuck
With helpless eyes
Don't catch nothing but people
By surprise
By the harsh glare they become
One glance has been known
To turn some to stone

Falling from the skylight~
My misery is keeping me right
A path I must fight
Or else I lose sight
Of everything in life
This time
I couldn't stop it no matter how hard I tried
In my mind this is the only thing that could seem all right

And as I stood on the edge
Looking in to the crowds below
I can't stop but begin
To think of all my friends screaming no
By then i've already started to go
So when does it end I don't really know
Just thinking about all the dirty blows
She took on me cause I was a dope
And didn't take the chance to let her go

Falling from the skylight~
My misery is keeping me right
A path I must fight
Or else I lose sight
Of everything in life

What inspired me to write this? I couldn't tell you to be honest, but it's unfortunate that some people take this path.
