Bright Abyss

John Mark McMillan


So comes the abyss
But the abyss, she is bright
Whoever told you there was something
Wrong with you like you just weren't right
Whoever said that there was

Something missing deep down inside your life
Whoever told you that you needed something that you didn't have
Made you feel like you were fractured and your head was bad
We break off
Flicker into the dark
Dim on the rim of our story arc

Running to the abyss
But the abyss, she is ours
Didn't anyone ever tell you that you's a dream of God
And you live your whole life suspended in the great beyond

Even science says we were made from the dust of the dying stars
So does that mean when heaven dies that it comes to us
Over and over again
Ah, oh, oh, oh
Ah, oh, oh, over and over, my friend
Ah, oh, oh, oh
