How It Ends - Beth Crowley

There’s a darkness that plays behind your wicked smile

An aching sadness as you cradle me like I’m a child

This is madness

We’re descending into madness

And it chills me to the bone

Even when you’re gone I’m not alone

I’m never alone

I’m searching, desperate for a fracture in your shell

With every passing day it gets harder to tell

Where the demon stops and where you begin

But I promise you this isn’t how it ends

I am frightened as we tumble down the rabbit hole

My grip tightens, I’m clinging to your missing soul

You can fight them

Together we can fight them

Tell me you’re not too far gone

That I’m not a fool for holding on

I have to hold on

I’m searching, desperate for a fracture in your shell

With every passing day it gets harder to tell

Where the demon stops and where you begin

But I promise you this isn’t how it ends

Deep within your twisted truth

You made yourself a home

But it’s a place where I can’t follow you

Don’t leave me on my own

I can’t do this on my own

I’m searching, desperate for a fracture in your shell

With every passing day it gets harder to tell

Where the demon stops and where you begin

But I promise you this isn’t how it ends
