The Abyss - The Weeknd

Lyrics by：Abel Tesfaye

Composed by：Abel Tesfaye

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 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 oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh 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?

(Mmm)

If you're looking for rage

(Mmm oh)

If you're looking for ragin'

Quiet for days

Baby running away

Ayy yeah

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'll pray
