Echoes in the Abyss (Version 2)

Verse 1

Underneath the overpass, water running black (black)

Coiled copper wire in a canvas sack (sack)

Soot on my knuckles, diesel in the teeth

Clean world above, but I rule underneath (neath)

Pre-Chorus

Drop down low where the sirens bend

Follow the pipe to the dead-line end

Feel that rumble in the broken shoe

The pit ain't empty, it's looking at you (you)

Chorus

Echoes in the abyss, let the concrete shout (shout)

Scrape along the bottom till the light burns out (out)

Down where the dirt don't lie, give the dark its kiss (kiss)

We live in the fracture, echoes in the abyss (abyss)

Verse 2

Rebar spikes sticking out of the wall (wall)

Generators humming in the sunken hall (hall)

Blown subwoofer rattling the metal grate

I don't ask for mercy, I accelerate (rate)

Mud on the boot, black frost on the bone

Ugliness lasts when the beauty is gone (gone)

Pre-Chorus

Drop down low where the sirens bend

Follow the pipe to the dead-line end

Feel that rumble in the broken shoe

The pit ain't empty, it's looking at you (you)

Chorus

Echoes in the abyss, let the concrete shout (shout)

Scrape along the bottom till the light burns out (out)

Down where the dirt don't lie, give the dark its kiss (kiss)

We live in the fracture, echoes in the abyss (abyss)

Bridge

No sky to judge me, no sun to burn (burn)

Ten feet under where the turbines turn (turn)

Call it a ditch, but I made it a throne

Nothing can break what is already stone (stone)

Chorus

Echoes in the abyss, let the concrete shout (shout)

Scrape along the bottom till the light burns out (out)

Down where the dirt don't lie, give the dark its kiss (kiss)

We live in the fracture, echoes in the abyss (abyss)
