Wombskin - The Descent Lyrics

As we descend
Down into
This black hole
Together
Hands clasped
Escaping the past
Beauty's what we see
The light at the end
Still this locomotive
Is chasing back there
We run as fast
As our legs hold
We feel this pressure
We can't move slow
The light grows brighter
The sound grows louder
We lock eyes
Determined
And look straight ahead
The end
It is near
The tunnel grows silent
We jump straight
Off the edge
And fall
For the rest
Of time
An infinite descent
At least I know now
That's what you meant
When you
You wrote this story so clearly
As an escape
From anxiety
As we both
Look back
See things
As they were
Still running forwards
Escaping nightmares
Sanity's what we seek
We've all been there
Afraid of the dark
And only had ourselves
We'll embrace
The descent
We know by now
Things grow
In cycles
And then you hit the ground
I've seen the worst
But that was your first
Dark room you had to
Find your way out
When you
Were young
You never knew what was going on
As we descend
I was the one
Holding your hand
