I took the picture down
Hung it backside face out
I'm not looking back at what I had, hoping this or that
I took your picture down

I pray to the abyss
I honor the abyss
Send my love and blow a kiss to the darkness, darling
I honor the abyss
I lay with the abyss
Send my love and best wishes to the darkness, darling

Hung it backside face out
I'm not looking back at what I had, hoping this or that
I took your picture down
Put the frame up empty
I know what I'd see
Just nobody staring back at me
I took your picture down
I took your picture down
I took your picture down
Hung it backside face out
I'm not looking back at what I had, hoping this or that
I took your picture down
Put the frame up empty
I know what I'd see
Just nobody staring back at me
