“‘Scars of the Abyss’ is one of the songs that best reflects the blend of old school power metal and modern heaviness that defines this album.” – Horst Tessmann (bass, backing vocals)

Lyrics:
I don’t know why I was not able to see
What was right in front of me
A disaster, the abyss
The sum of all you simply don’t want to see
I’m trying to get out, but this quicksand’s pulling me
Down into the ache
I’m trapped in a nightmare
Choking on the seconds I can’t afford to waste
And I still try to understand
Where my path began to stray
And why this hope inside me
Has slowly come undone
Keep it all at bay
It never flows the proper way
Walking through the dark
I’ve lost the plans to heal my heart
Way too long, I was airborne
And lost my feel for this cold reality
I keep on trying to fake it
But if you look close enough, you’ll see what’s going on with me
And I still try to understand
Where my path began to stray
And when the darkness finally
Overshadowed all the light
Now I’m standing here
Looking to the sky, asking one more time
Keep it all at bay
It never flows the proper way
Walking through the dark
I’ve lost the plans to heal my heart
Keep it all at bay
Let the silence have its say
Keep it all at bay
While colors fade to gray
Keep it all at bay
It never flows the proper way
Walking through the dark
I’ve lost the plans to heal my heart
Keep it all at bay
It never flows the proper way
Walking through the dark
I’ve lost the plans to heal my heart
Keep it all at bay
Let the silence have its say
Keep it all at bay
While colors fade to gray
