“Into The Abyss


In the midst of the wailing winds
In the thickets of the ghastly fields
I found a ring lying on the ground
With the footsteps to follow around
Frightened yet resolute, out in the dark i go


In the willows beside the river
An old man creaked in his chair in a queer
"It has eyes everywhere,
You can't escape once you're here"
He whispered, as if his last breath
And out in the dark I go


In the cricket's cries, under the hollow moon
I saw a graveyard with tombs dug through
"Dead celebrate when the night is nigh
For they revel in the living's cry",
Said the men with the axe in tow,
And out in the dark I go


Somewhere out in the dark, distraught
The footprints I stumbled upon were gone
I had to return the ring, i thought
But the one i was carrying was gone


Where am I? I wish I would've known
I stared into the abyss, all alone
No soul within, nor outside stark
I shouldn't have gone out in the dark
I shouldn't have gone out in the dark”
