Deeper
A song about depression and the ruinous effect that feelings of emptiness can have on a person.

Wunschliste
The skies are still
and I'm falling faster
I've got time to kill
but no forever-after!
I looked behind my eyes
not knowing what to find
I peered behind the lines
and became lost
within my mind
Don't look
within yourself!
Unless you're prepared to see
what lives
where you
are empty!
Don't dig
where horrors lie!
Unless you're prepared to find!
what your misery's left behind!
The walls are bare
and I'm clawing deeper
I've no thought to spare
and the stairs are getting steeper
I pulled back the torn skin
not expecting to even bleed
I winced at what's within
and cried to behold
what I had freed
Don't look
within yourself!
Unless you're prepared to see
what lives
where you
are empty!
Don't dig
where horrors lie!
Unless you're prepared to find!
what your misery's left behind!
I found the song of my soul
I tried to listen to it!
I felt it swallow me whole
and I slowly give into it!
adrift in darker tides
and I'm going out to sea!
the thing that lurks inside
is taking over me!
I looked inside myself
and expected a wound,
consumed,
I looked inside of myself
and expected suffering
But I looked inside of myself
and I found
nothing...
