Lower

Lower and lower, my soul sinking lower Living for indulgence, the trinity of man Me, myself, and I Higher and higher, my greed takes me higher All those below me I've cast aside Clawing at their flesh to reach the heavens above Deeper and deeper, my mind sinking deeper When is too much enough to throw it all away Stab my allies in the back just to seize the day Lesser and lesser, my life feeling lesser Loathing what I am, the lower form of life The blood on my hands will never wash away Mad with guilt, spiraling out of control Cold with hate for myself and what I've become All that's held me together is broken but will I fall My twisted ambitions still calling, the voices I can't ignore Not even God can save me now That flame burned out long ago All my ways of sin and greed Are the only passions I know Darker and darker My soul gets even darker Moving ever closer to the depths from which I can never return
