Name: Abyss - Full Version
Duration: P00H04M19S
Description: Some of us have always had to fight to be who we are. We had to fight to be valued and seen, fight against prejudice and being put into categories that diminish our identity. Without the proper guidance this ultimately leads to a void where you fight for value and connection with yourself. Abyss is a song I have written about a fight for connection.

lyrics

I won’t listen
Even if it cuts my skin
It’s a prison
But I won’t let you in

Every step is a crack
Fragile as ice
Stumble and snap
Slips through like a knife

I’m floating in the abyss
I’m in the unknown
Will I be missed?
How will I get home?

I’m in the abyss
I’m in the unknown
Will I be missed?
How will I get home?

Cloud of a feeling
Darkens your face
Invisible demons
Shifting my place

Voice caught cannot speak
Words stuck in my mouth
Shame runs so deep
Can’t pull myself out

I’m floating in the abyss
I’m in the unknown
Will I be missed?
How will I get home?

I’m in the abyss
I’m in the unknown
Will I be missed?
How will I get home?

I don’t know what is real anymore
I don’t know how to feel anymore
Pushed it down for so long
Can’t tell when something’s wrong

I’m floating in the abyss
I’m in the unknown
Will I be missed?
How will I get home?

I’m in the abyss
I’m in the unknown
Will I be missed?
How will I get home?

I’m floating in the abyss
I’m floating in the abyss
