Le Gouffre

You think that your life
Is of little importance
That the words that come to you
Don't really make sense
In your head there are noises
You feel like an animal
You stay in your bed
When you say 'I' it hurts
Diving nose first
Without seeming to
I don't know what's eating at you
It's not very clear
I don't know what's eating at you
But you bury yourself

The abyss calling you
You descend rappelling
Smelling the scent of sulfur
To me, you're the most beautiful

You were already so tired
The year I met you
You had knives in your head
That came to caress your skin
You wore your hatred over your shoulder
You and the others were at war

The abyss calling you
You descend rappelling
Smelling the scent of sulfur
To me, you're the most beautiful

You no longer had a taste for anything
You were in your dark tunnel
Your days all had the same end
You were going to rust behind a bar
Now you can put down
Your razor and your suitcase
Your path doesn't go any further
You'll have to improvise

The abyss calling you

The abyss

Before our time, the trace howls
Of you, of me, of those who pass by
Before our time, the trace howls
Of you, of me, of those who pass by
Before the fear, before the break
And as I see our lives tracing

The abyss calling you
You descend rappelling
Smelling the scent of sulfur
To me, you're the most beautiful
