lirik lagu the novelty of haunting – so many dynamos
the last thing i remember1
the car was falling straight into the lake.
crashed into the surface.2
the airbags suffocated me and i
woke up in the morning
and it felt just like a dream.
shutting off without a purpose
cutting to a different scene
i jumped out of the shower
put on the clothes i’d just had on before.
stood still for a moment.
i toweled off and noticed when i
looked at my reflection
that i looked just like a ghost.
i was pale, i was translucent.
i was cool and decomposed.
i think your demons need some exorcise.
it’s been over a year now.
the novelty of haunting has worn off.
it was cool for a while.
my funeral was decent and i
want to see my friends now
but i don’t want to be a creep.
floating silent in the corner
with their bodies fast asleep.3
it’s all sort of confusing.
i don’t know what to do with my dead self.
waiting for an afterlife
but i don’t think it’s happening and i
wish my soul could end up
where my body now resides.
miles down into the soil
with a ribcage full of flies.
i think your demons need some exorcise4
