Meander - The Abyss lyrics


ad
- How does it feel day after day, face to face with killers?
- Well, long-term exposure to these things tends to give you
A sort of clinical understanding of the subject, so to speak
- It sounds as if you're saying the closer you get to evil
The less evil it becomes
- No, no, the less mystifying
Good and evil are only illusions
I don't believe in evil with a capital "E"
That suggests some, some kind of external force
Some third-party bad guy pulling all the strings

Good and bad no longer existed
It was all degrees of evil now
Gwendolyn held his dying body as the storm raged on
Death had finally arrived, and it was glorious to the touch

If he had turned his head so much as an inch
Belladonna would have killed him
And Emma, too, had she come closer
Not from hate, but carelessly
As one might crush an insect in case it stung
Belladonna had no knowledge of good or evil
Like her namesake, the pretty plant
That displays its deadly berries to passing children
She could please or kill with equal unconcern

He who fights with monsters
Should be careful lest he thereby become a monster
And if thou gaze long into an abyss
The abyss will also gaze into thee
