Description
A door without a handle
That has a deadbolt
It’s the only solution
When the world crumbles

A name is written in the ash
Untouched on the old stairs
Little light flickers in the dark
To guide on the path to the dead

Death speaks in tongues
Unheard by the unaccustomed
A glass window to the obvious
Cracking underfoot the weighted

The pressure is intense
The summit before the fall
Is defying gravity with smiles
As the impact is expected

A basement that’s not what it appears
Leaves victims disappointed in a chill
Emptiness and stagnant air within
The beauty is only worth face value

There’s a story to everything
And there’s never an act without a curtain close
Some may never have an encore
But it doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth the time
