lyrics

'Slide out of View'

How come I am quiet when everything around me is burning down Down to the ground
When I should be kicking and screaming?

How come I am smiling when everything around me has lost its shit Falling to bits
When I should be terrified and then some?

Lose yourself in a book or a magazine
Something a little less blue
As the world’s changing and life’s rearranging just stop
Let it slide out of view

And sing la, la la la la

How come I’m laughing
When everyone around me’s at each other’s throats?
Was it something they wrote?
Humanity’s sinking it’s a pity shit floats
Now I’m thinking about it, and feeling more anxious
So I’ll shut my eyes and my fears are soon vanquished
I’ll close off my ears with two fingers and I'll sing

La la la la la
