Lyrics

I give thanks to the waning moon
I'm working for a total blackout
The sun used to be one of my favorite drugs
Looks like that one's gonna kill us all

Disappear
Disappear
I don’t need this body
It's so clear
Way too clear
I’m not here with my mind

I'm running on a great big tank again
But how long ‘til I crash?
And then this bag's gonna burst again
Bring me down to my bad knee

Disappear
Disappear
I don’t need this body
It's so clear
Way too clear
I’m not here with my mind

They say my soul is still alive
In the eyes of god
Maybe living is not enough for me
They say my soul is still alive
In the eyes of god
Maybe living is not enough for me

Disappear
Disappear
I don’t need this body
It's so clear
Way too clear
I’m not here with my mind
