2am (The Face Changes Shape)

from EP1 by Absolute Melt

/

lyrics

The worrying words of the truth
The realisation of lost youth
A mind in overdrive while something slowly this way comes
That’s impossible to outrun
The face keeps changing shape

Days as dull as stomach pain
Lungs in love with acid rain
Not much left to gain, but plenty of diminishing returns
An unlit match begs to be burned but from the other end

Paranoid delusions never fade
Those apologies I sent ten years too late
Weren’t necessary in the first place
I sincerely hope you’ve enjoyed the control
Now pray to God to save your soul
When you know fine well that Heaven swallows whole

It’s been a life-long dream of mine
To shorten mine by quite some time
Sometimes live to outlive suits me just fine
But when all I see’s existential decay
And all meaning gets stripped away
Fuck it, I tend to side with the Absurd these days.
