Wasting countless days
Looking for shallow happiness,
I tried to escape myself
But I could not hide from this
I slipped into the unknown;
A place completely timeless
And in between this world and the next,
There's only more emptiness
Waiting to pass off into the next life,
While trapped in this hollow existence;
I've been sucked into this nothing--
Welcome to the abyss

Welcome to the lost dimension
In the middle of nowhere
Shock muffled my screams for help
When I realized no one was out there
Except this cracked, empty shell
That used to be my life;
I've been slowly breaking down
Into this idle state of mind
And yet I keep on moving
Not knowing what I will find
In a place that's forsaken
And completely undefined
Memories don't form from nothing
And what exactly will I miss
If I ever find a way out
Of the deep abyss

How do you escape from a nothing
That hollows out your everyday
Into a life of something
That's always one lost hope away
There are no corners or walls
Just boundless, empty space
I've lost sense of direction
In this voided place
I walk alone in darkness
Slowly forgetting where I came from;
The cold is shutting my body down
And I'm slowly going numb

Groping around in pitch-black,
I can't tell if I'm deaf or blind
I'm losing my grip on hope
And slowly losing my mind
I've desensitized
As I've forgotten how to feel,
My senses become indistinct
And I seem more unreal
I keep trying to forget this place,
Drugged with thoughts of my longing bliss
For something far away
From the deep abyss..

Yet I just keep on walking,
Though there's no end to this--
This endless, nothingness--
In the deep abyss
