"Bottomless Pit"

With a groaning too deep for words
I'm singing out this curse
Why am I alive, why am I alive
If it only gets much worse

And I'll pursue it till the end
Even as my hope descends
Because I know love echoes back
Even into the void of black

What have I done
To keep me here
And you so far away
What have I done
To my dismay
It doesn't make much sense to me
But I know somewhere in eternity
It means everything

With a longing too deep for words
I stand here, not the first
To see the light and turn
And wonder why the silence burns

And I'll pursue you till the end
Even when I can't comprehend
Just what I'm running toward, it's something more
Than where I've been

What have I done
To keep me here
And you so far away
What have I done
To my dismay
It doesn't make much sense to me
But I know somewhere in eternity
It means everything
This means everything
To me

Heavy, like a heartbeat
Heavy, like a heartbeat
So close to me
Heavy, like a heartbeat
Heavy, like a heartbeat
So close to me

What have I done
To keep me here
And you so far away
What have I done
To my dismay
It doesn't make much sense to me
But I know somewhere in eternity
It means everything
This means everything
To me
