[Verse] Dark skies overhead, winter gloom His favorite days, but an omen of doom Canine companion always up for adventure The two didn't know it would nearly end there [Chorus] Into the Abyss! Plunged into darkest depths! Flailing in an icy realm, flirting with untimely death Into the dark! A mile away from home Four legged friend, so he wouldn't die alone [Verse II] Luck held, the abyss didn't claim him Ice-neck-deep, didn't have a desperate swim Broke through to the shore, never been so cold Initial stolen breath, adrenaline took hold [Chorus] Into the Abyss! Plunged into darkest depths! Flailing in an icy realm, flirting with untimely death Into the dark! A mile away from home Four legged friend, so he wouldn't die alone [Verse III] A race against time, a race against frost A race against sparing those who'd feel the loss Mother weeping in agony, a father in silent rage Still-young-couple, condemned to a hellish cage [Chorus] Into the Abyss! Plunged into darkest depths! Flailing in an icy realm, flirting with untimely death Into the dark! A mile away from home Four legged friend, so he wouldn't die alone [Verse IV] Sprint home, keep the body heat pumping Never felt so alive, effortless running Returned to the scene, to retrieve what was lost Another icy plunge - controlled - counting the cost The treasure stayed lost, forever elusive Buried water artifact, ancient and exclusive Looking down from a ridge, Primal Primate Observation The boy and his dog never in danger of extinction Watcher from a distance Elder Ape cognition!!!
