Perpetual Abyss
If you gaze into the abyss
The abyss gazes back
As I gasp for air
I catch whiffs of its pungency
Looking over my shoulder
Cessation is here with me
Mundane expressions surround me
Worn out by strain and tensity
Good morning day, greetings oh sky of grey
With each breath, I waste away
My eyes ache from unshed tears
I tremble in fear
I curse every tomorrow
That was promised to me
If there is a heaven up above
I know I'll never reach it
If hell exists
All this time I've lived in it
It always seemed so strange to me
Each time I close my eyes
My favourite visions
Are those of my demise
The void calls out to me
How did this come to be
Time and hope in the palm of my hand
Watched it all slip through my fingers like sand
I've always been led to believe
Damnation ensues beneath our feet
What difference does it make
To exist with a soul bound by ache
Any remains of hope now severed and abandoned
Rip my tongue out of my mouth
I don't wish to speak anymore
They ridicule this philosophy
They mythicise my cerebral war
My eyes ache from unshed tears
I tremble in fear
Seek truth and you shall find
Or drown in a sea of lies
I have been damned to this
A life of anguish
Death is the only release
If there is a heaven up above
I know I'll never reach it
If hell exists
All this time I've lived in it
If the devil walks among us
He manifests in the voices
If there is a god
He'll have to beg for my forgiveness
Release me
Release me
Release me
Release me
The abyss gazes back
As I gasp for air
I catch whiffs of its pungency
Looking over my shoulder
Cessation is here with me
Mundane expressions surround me
Worn out by strain and tensity
Good morning day, greetings oh sky of grey
With each breath, I waste away
My eyes ache from unshed tears
I tremble in fear
I curse every tomorrow
That was promised to me
If there is a heaven up above
I know I'll never reach it
If hell exists
All this time I've lived in it
It always seemed so strange to me
Each time I close my eyes
My favourite visions
Are those of my demise
The void calls out to me
How did this come to be
Time and hope in the palm of my hand
Watched it all slip through my fingers like sand
I've always been led to believe
Damnation ensues beneath our feet
What difference does it make
To exist with a soul bound by ache
Any remains of hope now severed and abandoned
Rip my tongue out of my mouth
I don't wish to speak anymore
They ridicule this philosophy
They mythicise my cerebral war
My eyes ache from unshed tears
I tremble in fear
Seek truth and you shall find
Or drown in a sea of lies
I have been damned to this
A life of anguish
Death is the only release
If there is a heaven up above
I know I'll never reach it
If hell exists
All this time I've lived in it
If the devil walks among us
He manifests in the voices
If there is a god
He'll have to beg for my forgiveness
Release me
Release me
Release me
Release me
