Lyrics

I need to go to the place where the blackouts live

I desire to go to a place characterized by blackout experiences.

Need to roll like a corpse to the graveyard shift

I need to move quietly, resembling a lifeless body, towards the night shift at a graveyard.

Couldn't ask for more cold than a collapsing rock

Describing an intense cold, comparing it to the frigidity of a collapsing rock.

Over consciousness eyes, under electric shock

Reference to the impact of overconsciousness and electric shock on the eyes.


I need to use these fingers wrapped around this knife

Expressing the urge to utilize a knife held in hand.

Oh, I would kill for a quiet life

An expression of willingness to go to extreme lengths, even committing murder, for a peaceful and undisturbed life.


Quiet life, oh, I would kill for a quiet life

Reiteration of the strong desire for a quiet life, emphasizing the willingness to go to extremes.

Quiet life, oh, I would kill for a quiet life

-

Never mind the obsessed, they don't remember

Disregarding those who are excessively focused or fixated, as they don't recall a time when they were fully engaged in the real world.

When all of our waking hours were spent submerged again

Reflecting on a period when most waking hours were spent immersed or absorbed in something.

Need a solid year removed from solid light

Expressing the need for a substantial break from constant exposure to intense or solid light.

Need to disappear, I need a quiet light

Desiring to vanish or escape, seeking a life of tranquility and peace.


I need to use these fingers wrapped around this knife

Reiteration of the desire to use a knife for a quiet life.

Oh, I would kill for a quiet life

Reiterating the willingness to commit extreme acts for the sake of a peaceful existence.


Quiet life, oh, I would kill for a quiet life

Emphasizing the strong desire for a quiet life through repetitive lines.

Quiet life, oh, I would kill for a quiet life
