To Another Abyss - Bad Religion

Not long ago and yet the image is so vague
I hesitate to label it a memory
There was a show of local color and I failed to stray
Cause I had nothing to offer but insufficiency
And you know that it's a b**ch
When you learn to scratch that itch
A blatant fallibility sooner to some but eventually
All kids pointed in the same direction
While the human masses and their vain conceptions
Obliterate each other with impunity
And you wonder what's in this for me
To another abyss(to another abyss)
To no avail(to no avail)
The search is bound to fail
To another abyss(to another abyss)
To no avail(to no avail)
So long ago I set sail
And it chills me to the bone
That I'm so far away from home
To another abyss
So what should I do now what should I celebrate
Given finite means and a penchant to depreciate
How can I still avow and depend upon a state
That cares nothing for my happiness welfare or fate
And I know I can't explain the commotion in my brain
Like a terrifying reality de constructed but inadequately
All gets pointed in the same direction
While the human masses and their vain conceptions
Obliterate each other with impunity
And release the weight of history
To another abyss(to another abyss)
To no avail(to no avail)
The search is bound to fail
To another abyss(to another abyss)
To no avail(to no avail)
So long ago I set sail
And it chills me to the bone
That I'm so far away from home
To another abyss(ooh ooh)
So long ago so long ago(ooh ooh)
Oh I set sail(ooh ooh)
And I'm struggling on the way(ooh ooh)
And I'm waiting for the day(ooh ooh)
And I'm looking for the way back home(ooh ooh)
So far away(ooh ooh to another abyss ooh ooh)
So far away(ooh ooh to another abyss ooh ooh)
So far away(to another abyss ooh ooh)
