Absentee Without Leave
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Verse 1:
Are you so low in confidence
That you take the next passer by?
Don't want to be alone
Don't want to be seen cry?
Chorus:
The happy facemask that you wear,
Doesn't cover up the colour of your hair
So is this the right thing to do,
Tell somebody that you don't have a clue?
Verse 2:
And I'll use misfortune to your advantage
And i'll wrape up the feather, all in a bandage
The people are catching on to your passion
So grab the attention fast because it's going out of fashion
Chorus
Bridge Part 1:
Runaway, to where the sun shines
Slip away, never looking behind
Yet day's off old, follow the trail
To where your head rests
On the pillow of feathers, you keep so close
Yet day's off old, follow the trail
To where your head rests
On the pillow of feathers, you keep so close
Bridge Part 2:
What ever you have misplaced
It cannot be retrieved
Swallow the pride and believe
Chorus
