Lyrics
Escape The Absynthe
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.
Entering the room with facial distortion on my mask.
You thought you had a life that was closer.
My true identity lies in my future, not my past.
You thought you had a life that was closer.
I can wish.
Happiness exposed, and not too far from my grasp.
You thought you had a life that was closer.
Walking in slow-mo with Pentium time to pass.
You thought you had a life that was closer.
Escape absinthe
I can't imagine the passion that was felt.
Staring, procrastination…such power in yourself.
Fall deep, try to get out.
You laugh and cry and shout "I can't escape!"…if power's what I need.
Elevation lowers (my blood pressure) is getting high.
You thought you had a life that was closer.
Waking up to another person that is not my wife.
You thought you had a life that was closer.
I can wish.
Pain folds on (dirt) starts to fade away.
