The Absence - Black Phantom

Today all the power’s been cut off

Today all the lights got turned out

I’ve finally opened my eyes wide

Now all I can fill them with is the dark

It’s the dark

It’s not anything I’ve just found out

Nor any particular news

Althoughts it’s been here for a long time

The truth’s come to hit me out of the blue

Of the blue

I’m not afraid of reality

I’m just amazed by the end of all dreams

Will the sun still rise and still set now?

Without you here, and will the earth

Hold on its oblivious rotation

Even with my universe dead and gone?

Dead and gone

I’m not afraid of reality

I’m just amazed by the end of all dreams

It’s the absence the link of the chain

Binding my future away

In the silence, a dismal life

With only pain by my side

It’s a slipknot, the loos of my noose

They tighten for you

In the absence I will get by

Taking one day at a time
