Dark Descent

[Intro]
None of us feared heights
We didn't have the luxury of such fear
The cables led us down into a dark abyss
But they also led us to a new home

[Verse 1]
These are trying times, I've never seen us fall
Even when we find our backs against a wall
We band together whatever comes our way
Face to face and eye to eye we seize the day

[Chorus]
Hell's fire is a long way down
Hold tightly to the lifeline
Look to the sky, affix your gaze
We will conquer what comes our way (Face the fall)
Face the fall
Face the fall
Face the fall

[Verse 2]
Hold on tightly as if our life depends
It's a long way down unto the very end
Step by step we crawl as if we're on our knees
Rung by rung on this ladder of life we lead

[Chorus]
Hell's fire is a long way down
Hold tightly to the lifeline
Look to the sky, affix your gaze
We will conquer what comes our way (Face the fall)

[Bridge]
Bones are getting weary
I can barely catch my breath
Will I find the strength to carry on
Unto the very end?

[Verse 3]
Getting closer now, I sense the goal is close
Grip of death has loosed its hold upon my throat
Breathing clearer now, our lungs fill with hope
We will soon be free of life's constricting rope

[Chorus]
Hell's fire is a long way down
Hold tightly to the lifeline
Look to the sky, affix your gaze
We will conquer what comes our way
Hell's fire is a long way down
Hold tightly to the lifeline (Face the fall)
