Down and down the elevator goes
Deeper & deeper the despair grows
All the good deeds
Meant nothing in the end
The secret things you did
Your silent sins
Are what fated you to the desolation
You are now facing…
The horror, the shock
The fear of the unknown
All are nothing
Compared to the reality you are about to be shown
Warmer
…More desperate your soul now gets…
You’d never imagined
A soul could feel such dread.
Down, down, down
The elevator continues to go
Your past memories now overtaking
You fade in and out
As you begin to hear the screams grow
Still…
Further down you continue to go
Now you think
You aren’t sure if you want the elevator to keep going
Or you wish it would stop?
However,
The screams are unnerving!
The pain,
The hate,
The sorrow
The sins…
All the souls are becoming more audible
In their torment…
How did it come to this?
You think to yourself
What led you to an elevator to Hell?
Perhaps it was the gambling?
Maybe just the greed?
Maybe it was the woman you left
To carry your seed
The child who grew up
With a mother who cried
The kid who grew with resentment
Till the day his mother died
She’d hung herself,
She lives down here now too
Your son now a killer
…All because of you…
People don’t care about their actions
Or sins
Till judgment comes
And they are sentenced to their ill fated end…
They know from birth
One day they’ll die
Yet most waste this chance
A chance at eternal life
Down, Down, Down…
The elevator continues to go
Your head is throbbing
You’re panic growing,
Soon…
Yes…soon you’ll know…
The pain you wrought
The suffering you’ve sewn…
The elevator ride seems like it’ll never end
Little do you know
You’re already being tormented…
For part of your punishment
Was to go to a place without end
Forever afraid
Of that elevator stopping
In truth it moves eternally on
You…
Left only with your thoughts
Listening to the screams of others suffering
Wishing your pain,
Your fear would end
Yet,
Down, Down, Down
The elevator continues
…Eternally…
