Lyrics
Myopia
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.
I can't see, I can't sleep
I can't swim, I can't talk
Can't write, I can't count
I can't fly, can't play today
Take your things and run away
Grab yourself a holiday
Fix your nose and change your name
Thyroid eyes they diagnose
Myopia...
A red light, stomach ache
Relax but don't be late
It's too loud I've disappeared
I can't drink, I can't tell the time
Epic hero Gilgamesh
Battling with a lioness
One man war against the odds
Spectacles that break because
Myopia...
I don't think I can afford ya
You make me ugly anyhow
I think I see a car before me
Or maybe I've just hit a cow
I don't think I can afford ya
You make me ugly anyhow
I think I see a car before me
Or maybe I've just hit a cow
Myopia
