Lyrics
Away / Absent
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.
A new job in a new town
Your favorite fix to get you through the day
Wild flesh on a big screen
Wolfing down lies, junk and aspartame
Bright noise
To silence what you say
Transcendence and video game rewards
Dazzling drugs to cast the clouds away
So what do you know about sex and death?
Nothing
Nothing
Take me away from here
Give me something to escape
Drain me
Waste me
Numb me
Take my everything
Today I leave it all behind
I feel so light
I feel so light
My burden swallowed by the tide
I feel so light
I feel alive
And I am never coming back
