Going between two worlds
All the filth and all that plastic
All the plaster faces litter my mind
All the hours all the days
We spend our lives wasting away
Wasting away
Turning off like day and night
Shutting down to feel alright
Nothing real ever makes sense
Swim through the shifting waves
To a bleak depleted barren landscape
Leave my body in an open field
Brushing off the salty brine
Living in a different time
Every day is new and every second is old
Close my eyes and keep them shut
Let it out when you've had enough
Burn my bones and scrape up my flesh
Scrape up my flesh
Scrape up my flesh
Scrape up my flesh
It's been a lot of fun
Up in smoke, and then I'm gone
It's been a lot of fun
Up in smoke, and then I'm gone
Weave me through a saw-tooth blade
And watch my energy cascade
Running out of breath
And running out of time
Running from my problems
Running from myself
From this shadow that's behind me
Always behind me
Tapping on my shoulder
Whispering in my ear
Whispering in my ear
It's been a lot of fun
Up in smoke, and then I'm gone
It's been a lot of fun
Up in smoke, and then I'm gone
