"Distractions Of Living Alone" lyrics
"Distractions Of Living Alone"
When I come home at the end of the day
Everything is just where I left it
No one has called, nothing has changed
Everything is just how I left it
I haven't spoken a word in days
Except for cursing the noise in the hall
I haven't spoken a word in days to anyone else at all
And so, as I go, I'll leave my body for you
And so, as I go, don't feel sorry for me
For life is the sacrifice before you die
And so as I go, I'll leave my body for you to see
A bed all alone in the bedroom
A vacant space where a table should be
Some posters on the walls
The bathroom mirror covered in spit
I have made such desperate attempts to make this a nice place to live
And I have failed, for I have tried to fill this dead empty space with a life
All this time on my hands
And I have nowhere to go
Haunted by the distractions of living alone
I hope you'd be the first one to find me
After I'd concluded the past behind me
So hold your hands over your mouth
And run to tell the others

Like a shadow you're simple minded and blind

Swallow The Sun - "Moonflowers Bloom In Misery" Will you die in misery?
Wash over me, wash over me
Will you die of a broken heart?
Tears you apart, tears you apart
Will you die in misery?
Rain over me, rain over me
Can you die of a broken soul?...
Draconian - "Night Visitor" I brush these shackles off the wind
With a drunken insomniac frown
A never-ending repetition
To melt the frozen sun
And there is no victory
There is no loss

My Dying Bride - "My Wine In Silence" Where are you now my love?
My sweet one.
Where have you gone oh my love?
I'm so alone.
I only think of you.
And it drives me down.
I only dream of you.
Come here
My lover
I'll keep you
I will...
