Darlingtonia - Absolute Darkness Lyrics

Absolute darkness, I wanna go
Absolute silence, I wanna know what it feels like with no streetlights and no engines humming
I wanna feel my heart beat
I wanna see the unseen little lightning flashes

I've forgotten how to be the animal that I used to be, but I hope it's still a part of me
'Cause the only way to be free is to let the beast out eternally
Ya, hunt and gather, build a shelter, defend against predators
But isolation breaks you down, gotta venture out
Back to those same city streets with the ambient light and the engine heat
And try to forget how freedom feels

Ya, I've got a good life here
Ya, I've got everything I need
I've still got some alcohol and 'bout a half gram of weed
And when I close my eyes I don't see anything
Ya, when I close my eyes I don't fear anything
Ya, when I close my eyes I can't remember a time when I've ever felt more alive
