Lyrics
Can't Afford To Die
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.
Fingers severed on a mirrors edge
Isolated with no respect
Conversation has been replaced
Punctured slowly ideas escape
My possessions are all I have
One man's medicine poisons man
My subconscious knowledge safe
In my coma, in my coma again
In my coma, in my coma again, again
In my coma, in my coma again
Get respectable faces donned
Turn blind eyes to what's gone on
Slowly leak ideas through
Would you recognise I knew
Used expressions to converse
In my coma I do not hurt
