Abyss of the Water King (Wonderful Audio Technology Ancient Echos)

Down in the deep
Far away from the light
It's darkest where it's deepest
Where the creatures can hide

The pressure growing ever
More intense as we plunge
To the places that have never
Felt the touch of the sun

Hey
Do you think you know what's coming next
Do you think you know what to expect
Will it come as a complete surprise
When you can't even believe your eyes
When you can't even believe your eyes
When you can't even believe your eyes
When you can't even believe your eyes

Holding on for dear life
While our ears and our eyes
Try their best to deny

That as fast as we run
It is never enough
To escape for too long

Wishes return from the stars
Unanswered, falling apart
Straight back into our hearts

Now
Open up your eyes
See what you can see
Remember to breathe
Even if it seems

Way beyond belief
Or impossibly bleak
Your legs growing so weak
Just breathe, just breathe, just breathe

I don't know
I don't care
I'm not going anywhere

I'll stay here
Where it's safe
I'll make sure it stays this way

I don't know
And I don't care
I'm not going anywhere

I'll stay here
Right where it's safe
And I'll stay this way
I'll stay this way.

One day they wrote down
All of our dreams
Filled up the pages
Fast by the ream
Put them in pouches
And sewed up the seams
And dropped them all
Into the burbling stream

And then they floated out to sea

Did we lie
To our eyes
Tell ourselves
That we were blind

To escape
any trace
Of the world
We couldn't face?

Are we slipping
Are we fading
Away again
Are we slipping
Are we fading
Away again
Away
Away
Away

Hear the echoes down below
Not our words, only their ghosts,
Until they grow too faint to know
If they're reflecting anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore

See shapes moving all around
Flashes of eyes and hungry mouths
Wondering how we made it out
Watching for signs of slowing down
Down
Down
Down
