[Hook]
It's a deep dark abyss
The thing that they call a kiss
And I don't know if we really wanted love
Was it something I didn't pay
Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that
However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel
Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed
If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more
Lord knows, I can't help that for long
[Verse 1]
I remember the ones who I once called friend
The one group of people who would tend
To the wounds that hurt, now it's the end
I've fought for glory, hell now I could write a story
I would help with that, but maybe it's going all down
And I've tried to live life as well as I can, but renown
Can't get you everywhere in life, believe me I've tried
And if your parents taught you that, only you can prove it's a lie
But what was the past is now ending, so say the last goodbyes
Say hello to the new age, it's a good night
Obey the laws your government puts out
Or you'll be in prison next year, no doubt, and not even clout
Can get you past all of your jousts
It's a tournament for the next big thing, wow, what would I bring
A survival packet, life for hire, making it nine million dollars an hour
Knock the knight off his horse thrice, now it's over
And not even the last winner can be seen un-sober
And that's when you lose your grip on sanity
And remember there's no hope for humanity
[Hook]
It's a deep dark abyss
The thing that they call a kiss
And I don't know if the lord wanted d**h
Was it something he didn't pay
Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that
However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel
Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed
If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more
Lord knows, I can't live for very long
[Verse 2]
Only a few souls know the name of the girl I love
But I don't bother to tell them, because
I have things to lose, I don't have a time limit
And the things she could do; possibilities are infinite
I make it my best impression, best food forward
Although I make a fool of myself, hit the floorboard
And girl you may know who you are
But this clusterf**, it's Satan's smorgasbord
He performs every night, writing his songs
And his favorite thing to do is bang the gong, and get it on
But it's not enough, he's got a long way to go, and he's not pulling a con
Is it in my favor to make a deal with the devil?
Why not, one day I'll end up in his kettle
A white knight, a force of good
But no white knights are in, wrong neighborhood
An onyx knight capable of doing what they could
I know this may not make much sense to you right now
But I promise girl, I'll perform and take a huge bow
And god forgiving, you'll be my baby, cause
Now you're dealing with the real Sam Shady
[Hook]
It's a deep dark abyss
The thing that they call a kiss
And I don't know if the lord wanted hell
Was it something he didn't pay
Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that
However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel
Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed
If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more
Lord knows, I can't stay for long
[Verse 3]
Promises are for women, blood oaths are for men
Though some people make it vice versa any way that they can
I remember when my very best man died
At the very wedding he was posted at to guide
He was supposed to be the good guy, the ring bearer
Now he's probably being taken care of by a pallbearer
sh**, I try to walk away from all the drama
But more I do it seems it follows like a llama
Looking for food, it's a bomber
But I wish I could make it through
Sitting in the prison for a crime I didn't do
Having to talk to my family through a plastic booth
But I'm not the only one
It seems everywhere I look, friends dropping like mayflies
Developing a habit or losing to the angel cries
Well I'm tired, I'm done with the lies
That there's truly a grand prize at the end of the line
You wanna quit too? That's fine
Just walk behind me, single file
We might just be walking a few miles
[semi-verse/pre-hook]
Life is hard, it don't come with a manual
I try to understand myself, but it's still Samuel
Living life like a boss, well now that's coastal
My time has come, it's gonna go postal
[Hook]
It's a deep dark abyss
The thing that they call a kiss
And I don't know if the lord wanted life
Was it something he didn't pay
Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that
However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel
Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed
If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more
Lord knows, I can't be for long
