The Calling Of Below

Hey Doc

Thanks for seeing me

I guess I've just been down

Never really sure

If I want to stick around

Oh yes, you're depressed

I have just the thing

This should get you ready

And back, in full swing

Well what can I expect

It can't really be that easy

What are the side effects

Will it make me a bit queasy

Well that is the question

How will you feel

But we'll soon find out

When you spin the wheel

That doesn't seem right

Why don't you know

And why are you treating this

Like some kind of gameshow

Because what else could it be

Now let's go ahead and see

Which shade of shame

In this game you'll set free

What kind of doctor are you

This can't be for real

My sister came in the other day

Did you give her the same deal

Oh come now, don't fret

It's unbecoming

Try not to harsh my high

With all you're humdrumming

What the actual fuck?!

Are you high right now

I don't really see a reason

To lie right now

Yes of course I am

How else could I tell

Which ones will leave you feeling good

Or locked up in a cell

When the doctor is the patient

Of their own desire

They'll climb ever higher

And won't ever tire

What's good for the goose

Is amazing for the gander

No grander slander

Then to philander and wait

While the eggheads out back

Just create and debate

But don't worry son

We'll fix you up yet

As sure as the sun

Will rise up in Tibet

I'm getting out of here

This isn't close to helping

Well hold on a second son

Why is your face melting

What the hell is wrong with you

People trust you to be true

What's truer than sharing

The madness inherent

In all you ungrateful pricks

Day in and day out

Watching all you fuckers pout

Why can't you just be grateful

That we still answer when you shout

Oh life's a little harder

Than it was when you were young

Cry me a fucking river

And hold your fucking tongue

I didn't go to school for eight years

Just to hear

Your endless fucking whining

"Oh, the teacher touched me here"

So just take these fucking pills away

Take them twice a day

Take and take and take until the pain it goes away

Then take a little more

Because why the fuck not

I'll be so much happier

And so much less snappier

When I finally hear the gunshot

This can't be real

You're a fucking monster

So easy to be calling names

With all that hate you foster

Fuck you I'm done

I'm not asking anyone

For any more advice

On how to treat a condition

You have no recognition for

Because you don't have to live this shit

Don't have to fight this endless war

Oh sure

You're so pure

You've had so much to endure

But I can tell you this for certain

There's only one cure I know for sure

You take the knife

And one quick slice

Is all takes to end your strife

So come on lad

It's not so bad

There's a reason you can't say no

The only place you're not alone

Is the dark pits down below

Down there they take everyone

No insurance or price to be paid

All it takes is one little thing

One little trade to be made

Because once you're down

There's no need for control

No need to drown

Once you give me your soul

You're not a doctor are you

True

But I knew

That you'd be coming through

So how about it pal

Are you ready for the long way down

No, I'm not

I'm not gonna take the shot

I'm not that kind of person

I don't belong there with you lot

We can agree to disagree

But back to the matter of your fee

I'm not gonna pay it

Oh you think you'll get in free

I have a place to be

I'm not going in at all

Well if that is the case

Then why'd you answer my call

Take a look at what you've partook

The river pouring from your face

Don't be so quick to dismiss

You already belong to the abyss!

No!

Go ahead and try and fight

But you already lost when it really counted

So let's burn a hole in that dreary soul

So you can see the chaos we've mounted

It's not as bad as they say

When your halo's swapped with horns

No more waiting on a good day

You can always take what's yours

You've always been a taker

From the day that you were born

An emotional leech put here to preach

About all the endless scorn

Why not just be

What I put you here to be

And honor the oath that you've sworn

What do you say son?

Help me prove that darkness has won?

I believe in the light

That rises through the night

If what you say is true

I'll never bow to you

I may not be a perfect man

But I know what's right and wrong

So find some other dumbass

To dance along to your bullshit song

I may not always find the strength

To rise above my fears

To find a way to muddle through

To push through all the tears

But I'll be damned again

If through all I've been

I sit back and let you win

Careful what you wish for boy

Pride is the greatest sin

I should know, what it means to go

To the lowest of the low

Pride goeth before the fall, boy

More than words is this

Don't think I won't destroy

Those who go amiss

But I'll leave you now

To make your choice

Let no one call me unfair

But if I found you once

I'll find you twice

Of that you should well know

So don't go thinking

You're free from sinking
