Everyone hates to feel down,

but not just the average down.

The kind of down that makes you sink beyond the ground.

You try to avoid it,

but life isn't gonna let you.

You have to swallow that pain that beats you and pushes you down.

Life takes her hand, places it on your head, and holds you under hot water.

Yes, that water nearly boils you.

When she calls herself giving you mercy, she brings you up for a breather.

You say: "Why are you so rough with me? You throw muddy words and burning trials at me."

Life won't open her mouth to answer.

Instead, she pushes your wet body onto the ground;

she kicks you down with intimidating, cursing mouths and heartache.

Beyond the ground.

I'm sinking again.

Beyond the ground.

Dig me up.

Beyond the ground.

Lift me, again.

Beyond the ground.

I'm tired of the everyday broken pieces.

Beyond the ground.
