Going over to the dark side 
was never this easy
Just a slip from the pedestal
You placed me on
Was enough
to get me falling into the dismal
Depths of hell
And all the warning

I hate being placed high
Met with your blank stare
All you needed to know
Was that
I like being me
Liked being
Embraced for being human
With my numerous flaws and indignities
