It sat beside his bed as near as it could go

He read it every night just before he'd go

Asleep for the night with his dreams it'd fight, God save his soul

His mum would say, "no, don't be afraid son, there's no way you'll go"

All the way down. All the way down. All the way down. All the way down 



His mom would tell him read it and you'll be alright

He took it's every word and made it his life

All the way down. All the way down. All the way down. All the way down 



He never stood a chance when he's caught up in the night

He never thought he'd ever make it out of the light now
