[Hook] It's a deep dark abyss The thing that they call a kiss And I don't know if we really wanted love Was it something I didn't pay Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more Lord knows, I can't help that for long [Verse 1] I remember the ones who I once called friend The one group of people who would tend To the wounds that hurt, now it's the end I've fought for glory, hell now I could write a story I would help with that, but maybe it's going all down And I've tried to live life as well as I can, but renown Can't get you everywhere in life, believe me I've tried And if your parents taught you that, only you can prove it's a lie But what was the past is now ending, so say the last goodbyes Say hello to the new age, it's a good night Obey the laws your government puts out Or you'll be in prison next year, no doubt, and not even clout Can get you past all of your jousts It's a tournament for the next big thing, wow, what would I bring A survival packet, life for hire, making it nine million dollars an hour Knock the knight off his horse thrice, now it's over And not even the last winner can be seen un-sober And that's when you lose your grip on sanity And remember there's no hope for humanity [Hook] It's a deep dark abyss The thing that they call a kiss And I don't know if the lord wanted d**h Was it something he didn't pay Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more Lord knows, I can't live for very long [Verse 2] Only a few souls know the name of the girl I love But I don't bother to tell them, because I have things to lose, I don't have a time limit And the things she could do; possibilities are infinite I make it my best impression, best food forward Although I make a fool of myself, hit the floorboard And girl you may know who you are But this clusterf**, it's Satan's smorgasbord He performs every night, writing his songs And his favorite thing to do is bang the gong, and get it on But it's not enough, he's got a long way to go, and he's not pulling a con
Is it in my favor to make a deal with the devil? Why not, one day I'll end up in his kettle A white knight, a force of good But no white knights are in, wrong neighborhood An onyx knight capable of doing what they could I know this may not make much sense to you right now But I promise girl, I'll perform and take a huge bow And god forgiving, you'll be my baby, cause Now you're dealing with the real Sam Shady [Hook] It's a deep dark abyss The thing that they call a kiss And I don't know if the lord wanted hell Was it something he didn't pay Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more Lord knows, I can't stay for long [Verse 3] Promises are for women, blood oaths are for men Though some people make it vice versa any way that they can I remember when my very best man died At the very wedding he was posted at to guide He was supposed to be the good guy, the ring bearer Now he's probably being taken care of by a pallbearer sh**, I try to walk away from all the drama But more I do it seems it follows like a llama Looking for food, it's a bomber But I wish I could make it through Sitting in the prison for a crime I didn't do Having to talk to my family through a plastic booth But I'm not the only one It seems everywhere I look, friends dropping like mayflies Developing a habit or losing to the angel cries Well I'm tired, I'm done with the lies That there's truly a grand prize at the end of the line You wanna quit too? That's fine Just walk behind me, single file We might just be walking a few miles [semi-verse/pre-hook] Life is hard, it don't come with a manual I try to understand myself, but it's still Samuel Living life like a boss, well now that's coastal My time has come, it's gonna go postal [Hook] It's a deep dark abyss The thing that they call a kiss And I don't know if the lord wanted life Was it something he didn't pay Heed enough, and my soul inspires to be that However it makes me feel, like I'm beaten steel Sharp and cold, yet hurt and blood-bathed If you find what you're looking for, then you don't have to hurt no more Lord knows, I can't be for long
