I'm up all night on this dark wooden desk
Academia deemed me a sorry mess
7am my head lights up the sky
The moon's knocked down as my fingers learn to fly
Cutting down words is the hardest thing to do
The pen and paper won't judge you
Broadcasting thoughts on an idiot's journal
Is not the smartest thing to do
Retiring your mind when the project's done
Dreams of nine to five in a brain-dead slum
The lifecycle of my soul is a happy one
My head's clear now
The power's gone
It's time to turn the computer off
The sea, the sand, the grass, the forest
Is where you'll find me now
Is where you'll find me now
The music artist is an isolated soul
The world around him is not his home
Craving attention has no style
He doesn't care what you think or if he's not worthwhile
Record stores close across the land
The fruit of death has fallen down
Producers of dance are laughing
Mr Al Go Rhythm sorts music out
But he always wins the long fight
Even though he wasn't alright
Appreciated only
When his guitar strings made no sound
My head's clear now
The power's gone
It's time to turn the computer off
The sea, the sand, the grass, the forest
Is where you'll find me now
Is where you'll find me now
My head's clear now
The power's gone
It's time to turn the computer off
The sea, the sand, the grass, the forest
Is where you'll find me now
Is where you'll find me now
