The Abyss Stares Back - HMX
The abyss
Don't look along too
To the abyss
But what they don't tell you
It looks right back
Yeah yeah
I stare into the black and the black stares back
Eyes like dagger sharp, ready to attack
It whispers my fears, laughs at my dreams
Every shadow's alive, nothing's as it seems
The abyss don't lie, it just shows you the truth
Strips your soul raw, uncovers the proof
The things I've done, they crawl from the deep
No rest for the wicked, no solace, no sleep
I hear my name in the void's cold voice
You had a choice, but you silenced the noise
Now it's louder than ever, claws in my chest
I'm a guest in my hell, no chance for rest
Too late now
Don't stare too long, don't fall too deep
The abyss stares back and it never sleeps
It knows your name, it knows your sin
The abyss won't stop till it pulls you in
Too late now
The void's a mirror showing all my flaws
Every bad decision, every broken law
It grins like a demon, whispers my shame
This is who you are, stop playing the game
I tried to escape, but the pull's too strong
The darkness is where my soul belongs
It feeds on my guilt, it thrives on my pain
Every tear I've shed is its favorite refrain
The deeper I go, the louder it gets
The screams of the lost, the weight of regrets
I'm not the man I was, the abyss made me
A king in the dark, but the throne's too crazy
You feel that?
You can't run, you can't hide
The abyss lives inside your mind
No saviors coming, no light ahead
You're alive, but you're better off dead
Pulling you down
Don't stare too long, don't fall too deep
The abyss stares back and it never sleeps
It knows your name, it knows your sin
The abyss won't stop till it pulls you in
Don't stare too long, don't fall too deep
The abyss stares back and it never sleeps
It knows your name, it knows your sin
The abyss won't stop till it pulls you in
Pull me down
You stare too long, now it's all you see
The abyss isn't staring, it's becoming me
Welcome home
We're welcome home
Welcome home
You stare too long, now it's all you see
The abyss isn't staring, it's becoming me
Welcome home
