Bài hát The Vanishing Act Báo Lỗi

"The Vanishing Act"


Were you surprised that we never spoke?

That in the still of the night, when nothing stirs

I woke and I gathered up some clothes

I never planned on this but it's the way it goes

And now it all seems too familiar like pages turned on calendars

We get the same twelve months to fuck things up, year after year

And I can't believe how down I am like a well I'm being lowered in

Now water stops, the bucket drops us farther and farther down

Farther and farther down


Well I guess that you never knew me

Or at least not well enough


So I fill my gut with dark red wine

Until my brain shuts off and my eyes go blind

You won't see me there in that thick black air

Yeah, I'll finally make something disappear


Because I've been practicing disappearing

And I think that I've got it down


Now there is no sun, just a cellar

Nowhere is sky, just that black, black dirt

Now there is no sun, it's just a cellar

Nowhere is sky, just that black, black

Black, black dirt


Expanding outwards, just echoes for answers

Not that it matters, it's back or it's forwards

Unhappy lovers with baskets of flowers

Use them as markers

The place where your bed once stood

A time when it still felt good


But you'll get that feeling back

Yeah, you just need some time to think

And to add up the hell, get it straight in your mind

But to calculate cost, that may take some time

But I'm sure you'll get to feeling better

Yeah, I just need some time to drink


So I'll fill my gut with that blood red wine

Until my insides swim and my veins unwind

I'll be lying there in that hot white air

Once that something's gone, it might never reappear

It might never reappear

It might never reappear

It might never reappear
