Two men walk into a bar

Two men walk into a bar
One lifts his glass, the other looks far
Something forgotten, buried in the deep
Pulls him down through the floor to sleep

The first man orders his drink with ease
A scotch and soda, no hesitation, please
The second man remembers what he’d lost
It doubles him over, his heart the cost

Shaking now, he hits the ground
The pain, it pulls him down, down, down
Through the floor, into the earth below
But he doesn’t scream, doesn’t let it show

He looks up, through the cracks in the floor
Sees the man who was just there before
But no words come, no cry for help
They're not that close, he thinks to himself

I’m falling down, but you don’t see
You're sipping scotch, forgetting me
I could call your name, but what’s the use?
We're strangers now, too far, too loose

I’m sinking fast, through dirt and stone
You’re up there standing all alone
But no hand will reach, no voice will call
We’re not that close after all

The first man finishes his drink, stands tall
While the second man’s fading, about to fall
His body’s sinking, but his mind’s still here
In the space between memory and fear

He doesn’t scream, doesn’t ask for aid
He just watches as the first man fades
Into the distance, a shadow in the night
And everything feels so out of sight

Down here, I can see it clear
We were never close, that’s why I’m here
I could shout your name, but what’s the point?
You’re lost in your world, I’m in this void

Nothing to say, nothing to lose
Just let me fall, I didn’t choose
But down I go, without a sound
Swallowed by the earth, underground

I’m falling down, but you don’t see
You're sipping scotch, forgetting me
I could call your name, but what’s the use?
We're strangers now, too far, too loose

I’m sinking fast, through dirt and stone
You’re up there standing all alone
But no hand will reach, no voice will call
We’re not that close after all

Not that close, not that close...
Just let me go, just let me go...
