lyrics

This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me

Meet me, a person on the top
Livin' the life as if it's never gonna stop
Had friends, had wealth, had fame, I had it all
Then shit hit the fan and I began to fall
At first it wasn't much, but the feeling crept
Everyday I woke up feelin ever more stressed
Paranoia infiltrated, messing up my grind
Tried to act normal but this shit was messing with my mind
My numbers went down, my friends faded away
I kept reminiscin what it was I did or say
It never got better, it kept on getting worse
Yeah I'm branded as a villain, that shit fucking hurt
Now I'm all alone, and the pain is severe
This isolation shit be having me in tears
I can barely see the light, I'm at rock bottom
Makes me wonder if I myself am the problem
It's fucked up

This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me

I have to wonder how I got myself into this position
I got beaten to submission and I didn't even listen
I ran the message in my mind and it didn't even stick
I had to push my luck, I had to persist
I tried my best to fit in but I was living a lie
There were things about myself that I couldn't deny
Like the fact I'm too real, tell the truth too much
Society don't want me no more, guess I'm fucked
Maybe this whole thing wasn't meant to be
Feels like I'm blind, I wish I could see
Through their eyes, so I can understand what's going on
It's impossible to find a place where I belong
I don't know why God made me like this
If it's for a purpose then I want to know what it is
I can't keep spiraling down, it's gonna lead me to death
Can I forgive myself for all the shit that's in my head
Or will I end up dead

This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
This is the downfall, it's so steep
Never thought that it'd go this deep
Why is this happening, please tell me
I don't understand, can you help me
