Supreme Beings Of Leisure Lyrics
"The Light"

Morning breaks, the kettle's on
I'm not awake, there's no alarm
The hills aflame behind me as the ash seeps through my window

My mother's voice spills out of me like vinegar
Seems I just can't stop
My fight a burning beacon, dare I let it shine this bright

If you could take my youth and hold it in your hand
Then you'd understand
It falls through, it's just sand
No sense in holding on, the currents much too strong
Extinguish all those silly dreams

Did you turn out the light
You wonder through the day
Did you turn out the light

Did you turn out the light
You wonder through the day
Did you turn out the light
Did you turn out the light

I used to be consumed for hours without consequence
Burning at both ends with blasphemous indifference, yes
Just like you, I was just like you

If you could take my youth and hold it in your hand
Then you'd understand
It falls through, it's just sand
No sense in holding on, the currents much too strong
Extinguish all those silly dreams

Did you turn out the light
You wonder through the day
Did you turn out the light

Did you turn out the light
You wonder through the day
Did you turn out the light

Did you turn out the light

Did you turn out the light
