my lyricsbox
Not long ago, and yet the image is so vague
I hesitate to label it a memory
There was a show of local color and I felt astray
'Cuz I had nothing to offer but insufficiency

And you know that it's a bitch
When you learn to scratch that itch
A blatant fallibility
Sooner to some, but eventually

All gets pointed in the same direction
While the human masses and their vague conceptions
Obliterate each other with impunity
And you wonder "what's in this for me?"

To another abyss - to no avail
The search is bound to fail
To another abyss - to no avail
So long ago I set sail
And it chills me to the bone
That I'm so far away from home
To another abyss

So what should I do now?
What should I celebrate
Given finite means and a penchant to depreciate?
How can I still avow and depend upon a state
That cares nothing for my happiness, welfare or fate?

And I know I can't explain
The commotion in my brain
Like a terrifying reality
Deconstructed but inadequately

All gets pointed in the same direction
While the human masses and their vain conceptions
Obliterate each other with impunity
And release the weight of history

To another abyss - to no avail
The search is bound to fail
To another abyss - to no avail
So long ago I set sail
And it chills me to the bone
That I'm so far away from home
To another abyss

(So long ago, I set sail
And I'm struggling on the way
And I'm waiting for the day (to another abyss)
And I'm looking for the way back home (to another abyss)
So far away (to another abyss)
So far away (to another abyss)
(to another abyss) So far away
(to another abyss)
This song is from the album "The Empire Strikes First" and "Empire Strikes First".
