Work Text:
You raise me up,
Only to continuously slam me back down
And slice my pride away.
Every single cut gets deeper than the last;
My mental state barely hanging by a thread.
You always say it’s deserved.
My punishment for even thinking I should have a chance to make another mistake.
I never made mistakes,
I always made fucking choices.
This is my chance to finally deserve redemption.
Who am I to deny this gracious opportunity?
It would only be poor of me to do so.
So once again you raise me up,
And I allow myself to fall.
