Lyrics
Ether
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.
It's either ether or the other
My mind is back to front
And sometimes absent
And slip the cup
I've taken a sip from the cup that slips into ether
It's either ether or the other
I press my window to the glass
The glass turns to gas
I breathe out ether, a glass of ether
Ether is a thief
It's stolen my belief
Slip through the ether
We both slip through the ether
Slipstreams of memory slipping away
It's ether
Slip through the ether
Sip the ether
Sip the ether
Slipstreams of memories slipping away
Slipstreams of memories slipping away
Memories slipping away into ether
Into ether
I've changed my mind
It's what it's there for
I've changed my mind
It's what it's there for
For therefore
Full of ether
Full of ether
Full of ether
Full of ether
Full of ether
I'm going upstairs now
To take my mind off
I'm going upstairs now
To turn my mind off
