This Abyss (from “The Ersatz Elevator”) Lyrics
This abyss, this lightless void
This abyss of world destroyed
This abyss, all deep, all wide
This abyss of being denied
Even in the darkest forest
Fireflies are flickering
But not in this abyss of black increase
This abyss, without surcease
Even in the deepest ocean
There's a little moonlight
But not in this abyss of night unbound
This abyss, without a sound
Even in your bedroom shadows
There is something moving
But not in this abyss, this all-below
This abyss, this death, this "no"
