Chemicals

Are you descending in the chemicals?

Time growing between us
Falling behind
Wait for the door to open
Lies, ever the martyr
Look in my eyes
Tell me it's all for nothing

Fallout tore us apart
Left you alone to bleed
So long, still no resolve
You never saw the need

Are you descending in the chemicals?
It breaks my heart and soul
Just a shell of who you were before
You could feel it
Waiting to dissolve

Why do we suffer?
Are we alive, here just to hurt?
Inside pain is the author
Something to hide
Nothing to gain

I was distant, you resisted hope
And now Hell is at your door
Are you descending in the chemicals?
Waiting to dissolve

Rise up from the ashes
Run for your life
Run to the light
