In The Bag

(album: Disposable Life - 2022)

Spent all my days under the sun in a haven
Locked up in a room that's filled with fog and self isolation
But now I'm back and I can feel it
There's no more locking up my spirit

The sound won't drown me out
But it's got me spun around
It pushed us to the ground
With every isolated incident
So bend the light toward the dark
To illuminate what you can't see
The sound won't drown me out
'Cause I will not live for my secrets

Out of my skull, I'm numb, where is my mind?
I left it in the bag with the checks we never cashed
But now that funds are running thin, it's all objective
We slipped and fell back into our old ways at the same pace

The sound won't drown me out
But it's got me spun around
It pushed us to the ground
With every isolated incident
So bend the light toward the dark
To illuminate what you can't see
The sound won't drown me out
'Cause I will not live for my secrets

So what's the total cost
When the price you pay's not what you've got?
And when you add it up
All the things you got ain't what you want?
So what's the total cost
Of a handshake deal two fingers crossed?
Behind your back you strike a match

The sound won't drown me out
But it's got me spun around
It pushed us to the ground
With every isolated incident
So bend the light toward the dark
To illuminate what you can't see
The sound won't drown me out
'Cause I will not live for my secrets
