Pit of Despair
Right here your heart bleeds
down in the dark valley
where angels and devils are conceived
when you're locked in a dark fantasy
where deep pressure try
to siphon away your sanity
Right here where innocent little angels fell,
struck in eternity
Some call it heaven some call it hell
when there's no other door
Where kindness becomes a stranger
and the rich becomes poor
Right then you know life is hard
when you hear drug dealers on
their knees praying
and the atheist cry out "O my God!"
because he's about to be swallowed
by an overwhelming sea,
today the skies have so much energy
Right now reality, to you, is so real
looking for any kind of help,
hoping gentle eyes will help pay bills
when your money is low
and your check's not right,
your little angel down the street
trying to fight
Your soul screams out life's not fair...
You're in the pit of despair,
It caresses your face...
It braids your hair...
