The Downside

by David M Reyes (Leo) - Not entered

My love was another system that had shut down
When the factory heart could no longer pump the blood flow
Now I'm lost in the fallout and falling faster out of control
Fading into sleep heavy my eyes will seal slow
I'll sink like a needle into a hole

So the resistance starts here
Against the resistance I wont let go

Suffering from another falling high
Kissed goodnight and buried sound body and mind
Going out like a black light
If I could leave the way I came
Then in your womb I would be again
And it would feel like home

So the resistance I dont fear
I cant resist letting go

God had felt like ice in my veins
Right from the start it would end the same
Everything would end on the downside
So where was I? For all these years that had gone by
I waved into the mirrow
I'm still waiting for a reply

So the resistance ended here
I couldnt resist letting go

Reason for writing:

    Oh I think it's about heroin, you be the judge.
