The Abyss

I tried my best to not let you goI don't like the viewFrom halfway downJust promise me that it won't be slowWill I feel the impact of the ground?I tried to be something that I'll never beWhy waste another precious hour?Why waste another precious ounce?I'd rather leave somewhat of a legacyFamiliarA thought that's so familiarLet me close my eyes with dignityLet's end it all, the world's not far behindSo what's the point of staying?It's going up in flames, I knowYes, I know, oohHey-hey(Hey)Just hold my heartbeat close to youRemember how it always beats for youI'm falling at the speed of lightI'm staring at your shrinking face, don't cryYou know my heart belongs to youOne last time, say that you want me tooThe only words that gave me lifeNow I'll see you on the other sideOh, mama, I'll prayI'm running awayHey-hey (Oh, no)Hey-heyIs a threat not a promise? (Mmm)If you're looking for rage (Mmm, oh)If you're looking for ragin'Quiet for daysBaby, running awayAyy-yeahIt's a threat, not a promiseIt's a threat, not a promiseYeah-yeahMama, I'll prayMama, I'll pray
