Abyss
I feel so lonely, and out of sync
I've come to the end of my rope
I've reached my limit, I'm at the brink
I've lost my way, I have no hope
I am living in a black abyss
And edging on oblivion
I know I cannot go on like this
I have to start to live again
Surely somewhere deep inside myself
I can find the strength that I need
To start out on the long road to health
And follow wherever it leads
But all I can see is darkness now
I don't know how to reach the light
I just keep spiralling further down
Though I'm trying my best to fight
I need someone to throw out a line
To take my hand and not let go
To help me reach that one place in time
Where I can take back my lost soul
