the abyss

The Weeknd

I tried my best to not let you go
I don t like the view
From halfway down
Just promise me that it won t be slow
Will I feel the impact of the ground?
I tried to be something that I ll never be
Why waste another precious hour?
Why waste another precious ounce?
I d rather leave somewhat of a legacy
Familiar
A thought that s so familiar

Let me close my eyes with dignity
Let s end it all, the world s not far behind
So what s the point of staying?
It s going up in flames, I know
Yes, I know, ooh
Oh-oh

Hey-hey
Oh-oh
(Hey)

Just hold my heartbeat close to you
Remember how it always beats for you
I m falling at the speed of light
I m staring at your shrinking face, don t cry
You know my heart belongs to you
One last time, say that you want me too
The only words that gave me life
Now I ll see you on the other side

Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh
Oh-oh

Oh, mama, I ll pray
I m running away
Oh-oh
Hey-hey (Oh, no)
Oh-oh
Hey-hey
Is a threat not a promise? (MM)
If you re looking for rage (MM, oh)
If you re looking for ragin
Quiet for days
Baby, running away
Ayy-ayy
Is a threat not a promise?
Is a threat not a promise?
Yeah-yeah
Ah-ha (Oh)
Ah-ha (Oh)
Ah-ha
Ah-ha
Mama, I ll pray
Mama, I pray
