Dive into the hauntingly beautiful short narrative of 'Into the Abyss' by Ethel Cain, a dark tale about the dangers of plunging too deep into the ocean of love. With a powerful metaphor comparing the ocean's depths to the perilous nature of all-consuming love, this progressive narrative song captures the essence of passion and fear.
Lurking shadows whisper
As the siren's call breaks through the night
Ocean waves draw me in
Away from the fading light
Diving down into dreams
Where secrets quietly reside
In the night's silent hush
Fears and truths collide
Into the abyss
Where the light seems to miss
Heart feels love’s caress
Sorrow's cruel kiss
Into the abyss
Breathless I descend
Ocean depths so dark
Will this be my end?
Currents pull me under
Love’s deceit wraps me tight
Anchors at my feet
Dragging me out of sight
Silent screams swallowed
Lost in the deep unknown
In this endless dark
My soul becomes a loan
Into the abyss
Where the light seems to miss
Heart feels love’s caress
Sorrow's cruel kiss
Into the abyss
Breathless I descend
Ocean depths so dark
Will this be my end?
Falling deeper and deeper
Drifting far from the shore
Heartbeat pleads with the ocean
Begging for no more
Waves claim a piece of me
Lost in the cost
Love’s tormenting ocean
Wondering what's been lost
Into the abyss
Where the light seems to miss
Heart feels love’s caress
Sorrow's cruel kiss
Into the abyss
Breathless I descend
Ocean depths so dark
Will this be my end?
Drift away, surrender
To the ocean’s core
In love’s dark embrace
I breathe no more
