Song of the Abyss

 The decisions we make
The paths we choose
The destruction in our wake
Flames that dance around us

After a while
They define us
Make us who we are
Until we can never go back

The prints we leave
The bodies turned to ashes
After the sun falls
Someone must lead the darkness

If the light defines us
Shows the difference in us
In the shadows we are the same
We can never go back

Someone told me once
That they stared into the abyss
What they don't know
Is that the abyss isn't emptiness

We are the abyss
Looking at us is the emptiness you feel
Even as you stare into the abyss
We can never come back

Our paths are parallel
Leading to the death we know is just
Yours to the bright future
Defined by edges of the black

We die alone
Twisted, bloody, broken things
We go out too far
The light rejects us

And we miss it
You scream us to come back for hope
Stop staring we are gone
And we can never go back
