Out of Touch

about

From the debut ep Mantra

lyrics

There once was a man who lived on whisky & dreams
He looked up to reject all he had seen
Shuffled his papers & spat at the world
Realised his future hung in words...

We are, so out of touch
we are born out of touch

I can't quite forget its just a failing of mine
Pride is oblivion but mine is a crime

He once was immortal but what he has seen
Left him vulnerable & twice as obscene
As an artist ejaculating colors but no art
All that he lived for tore him apart

He was, so out of touch
We are born out of touch
I cant quite forget its just a failing of mine
Pride is oblivion but mine is a crime
I wont be used by any body at all
You'll find out deep down its worth more than you ever thought

So I say welcome to your high polluted nightmare
The air you breathe is filtered clean in Edge Wear
It's computer-generated, honey-soft & will be there
To hold your hand take you to the future

People say he's mystic
Others say he spies
I say he's left it
Too late to get out in time

You see the planet's like a spaceship
You guided to the heart of the Sun
It might look pleasant from a distance but not when your melting down
