It sat beside his bed as near as it could go
he read it every night just before he’d go
asleep for the night with his dreams it’d fight, god save his soul
his mum would say, “no, don't be afraid son, there’s no way you’ll go”
all the way down. all the way down. all the way down. all the way down
His mom would tell him read it and you'll be alright
he took it’s every word and made it his life
all the way down. all the way down. all the way down. all the way down
He never stood a chance when he’s caught up in the night
he never thought he’d ever make it out of the light now
