Take me down

Me, sitting in my metal cage
Waiting for the stars to explode
And it's okay
I'm ready for whatever comes my way
The graveyard to the left
The dealer to the right
On this cold, dark night
This lamp-post, my only friend
This sea of tar in-front of me
Let me swallow it, let me drown

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down

The demon in my head
Speaks in riddles to me
And he closes my eyes
Leads me to the place I despise
I feel numb
God had a son
But not a daughter
And I don't know why
Did they lie?
I've let them walk and talk all over me

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down

The girl with wiry red eyes
And skin of plastic and pain
Lays my head on her thigh
And says it will all be okay
These alleys of shadows and walls
See me coming back for the same
Again and again
Makes no sense
Only ghosts remain

Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
Take me down
