I'll Disappear (v. 1)


Somewhere trapped in all the noise
Unseen from both sides of the coin
It comes apart with fleeting points
Still claiming we all have a choice

Where would we be in this race?
If we all stopped to be detained
Subjected to this bullshit phrase
While moving at a frantic pace

I'll unplug my phone
Turn off the lights, pretend nobody's home

I'll just plug my ears
Shut off my brains, pretend that no one's here
Then I'll disappear, yeah I'll disappear

In the wreckage left to waste
From all the things we can't explain
While trampling through to count the ways
To leave this path without a trace

Thicker skin will be deployed
Preserving judgements yet to join
In choosing someone to anoint
Who'll claim that we all have a voice

I'll unplug my phone
Turn off the lights, pretend nobody's home

I'll just plug my ears
Shut off my brains, pretend that no one's here
Then I'll disappear, yeah I'll disappear

Wake me up when you can't see
When you're not always watching me
Slowly tighten up the noose
To hang around after you choose it

While we have all abused it
I think that you've confused this for reality
