Bad Religion - To Another Abyss Lyrics
Not long ago, and yet the image is so vagueI hesitate to label it a memoryThere was a show of local color and I felt astrayCause I had nothing to offer but insufficiencyAnd you know that it’s such a *****When you learn to scratch that itchOf blatant fallibilitySooner to some, but eventuallyAll gets pointed in the same directionWhile the human masses and their vague conceptionsObliterate each other with impunityAnd you wonder, “what’s in this for me?”To another abyssTo no availThe search is bound to failTo another abyssTo no availSo long ago I set sailAnd it chills me to the boneThat I’m so far away from homeTo another abyssSo what should I do now? What should I celebrate?Given finite means and a penchant to depreciateHow can I still avow and depend upon a stateThat cares nothing for my happiness, welfare, or fate?And I know I can’t explainThe commotion in my brainLike a terrifying realityDeconstructed but inadequatelyAll gets pointed in the same directionWhile the human masses and their vain conceptionsObliterate each other with impunityAnd release the weight of history[Chorus]So long ago, so long ago…oh, I set sailAnd I’m struggling on the wayAnd 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)
