The Descent (pages 1 & 2) Lyrics

Will my kingdom disappear and fade away?
Will sleep overcome my hurt and then decay?
I can't be poisoned and you will not make me cry
I've cleansed my uglyness and cleansed my paranoia
(thought this might be clenched, but cross-referenced
with the live version, cleansed seems most likely)

The winner takes it all, my baby teeth are gone
Into a better place that I have yet to go
Will I burn or will I pray?
Will sleep consume my waking days?
Descent is getting steeper day by day

This is my last descent
I hope I'm making sense
I've lost my last defence
This is my last descent

Have my expectations gone too far again?
Do I have the courage of the books I've read? Do you understand the pain we're going through?
There is no need to leave me beat up black and blue

The winner takes it all, my baby teeth are gone
Into a better place that I have yet to go
Will I burn or will I pray?
Will sleep consume my waking days?
Descent is getting steeper day by day

This is my last descent
I hope I'm making sense
I've lost my last defence
This is my last descent

This is my last descent
I hope I'm making sense
I've lost my last defence
The pages that you left

This is my last descent
I hope I'm making sense
I've lost my last defence
This is my last descent
