Sun crashed
Black entombed
Another step down
Dungeon deep
Howling thoughts
Barking dogs
Another step down
Dungeon deep
Bottle of suicide
Beckoning me
Another step down
Dungeon deep
Social shunned
Doubts undone
Another step down
Dungeon deep
Clownish grin
Masking grief
Another step down
Dungeon deep
Daybreak dawns
Struggling on
Last step down
Dungeoned deep
