beneath you

this world you love is coming down
precious things will end you one day
and then they come back to haunt you
it isn't going to be easy but it is relaxing
don't expect too much sympathy from them
the angels, the demons, the dust
we never thought it would last anyway
you were the only one we couldn't bare to watch
when it finally comes crashing home
you'll have lost even the things you'd forgotten
and everything you took for granted
the loves, the lives, the memories were beneath you
and i'll miss watching you smile for no reason
in situations that have no cause for laughter
when it's been a curse to be you
but a blessing to remember
to feel the light slowly fade away
and the water disfigure itself for you
let me know if it was worth it
when you see me again
let me know that it made everything better
if you ever see me again.
