Abyss at Bay Songtext
von Frida Hyvönen

Like I said I′ve felt ready to throw myself out there
So, having a daughter, I became a mother
Plucked from my womb on a winter's morn′
That's how my girl was born

Tits got big when they filled up with milk
A little mouth sucked up what my body gave
Baby grew and I grew thin
Nature had called and I was giving in

No new chambers opened in me, most filled up with light
But the shitty library in the back had windows looking out
To death and time
Death and time
Death and time
Death and time

The abyss at bay, the newborn babe
Snow that lasted well into May
I breathe in a tiny, steady pace
A steady pace


The moment needs you, you roll up your sleeves
The moment expands and it sucks you in
Through night and through day
My naked nerve keeping me willing and able to serve

Although I only see it from the corner of my eye
I can't help but notice we′re surrounded on all sides
By death and time
Death and time
Death and time
Death and time

Like I said I felt ready to give it a shot
So, having a daughter, I became a mother on a sunny winter′s morn'
That′s when my girl was born

Lay me bare, love inviting us in
I will never not mother again
She's five now, all funny and clever
This year the spring seems to last forever

Du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du
Du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du-du
Aouh aouh aouh aouh
Aouh aouh aouh aouh
