  • Snot- Absent Lyrics
    Well now it seems more than silence has been broken
    And I think I've figured out the the dying lie
    Yes the truth is that your dialect is half truth
    Another conversation died alone
    This is something we created
    Yes, well the sufferment's abated
    It doesn't have to be a prophecy
    We could be both seeking destiny
    It's fucking down to us and them
    You can decide which one wins
    Now's the time, are you the hunter or the hunted?
    (chorus)
    Absent - Sometimes it feels like it's us against them
    Absent, sometimes it feels like their angers are justified
    If it feels like I'm absent... from your conversation
    Just keep on talking and you'll find out...
    Now it seems that there are no easy answers
    To the same old question I've imposed
    What does it mean? Why would you bother asking me?
    Like it's something I should know
    Just 'cuz they paid me to take it
    I guess their money gave me credence
    Watch our records soar
    As you slow down to buy the accident - SO SICK!!
    Know that I'll pull your covers, bitch
    Yes I'm fixin' to knock that ego down
    Well I might slap you punk ass to the floor
    Stupid motherfucker, nothin' but a buster
    Still talkin' shit!
    Devoid of soul, so ya dig yourself a hole
    Take the fun out, I load the gun for you
    Incorrect, cause and effect, you've been sold
    Live in the wrong, so ya live in the lies
    Take the fun, load the gun, incorrect, cause and effect
    I don't care
    Yes you're probably right

      Seems like that happens way too often.
      "Here's this really talented, unique musician that will very likely revolutionize the scene if they keep producing music!"
      Dead at an extremely early age, or they do an album or two and quit, leaving us with just their warm up efforts and that's it.
      Just frustrating. This is one of my favorite songs ever, and it was their second album, third technically. And not even that, this was the only song he was able to record before dying. Like, shit I can't even imagine if they got through 5-6 albums.

    • @captaincobana4144
      @captaincobana4144 6 років тому +6

      How is it the third technically? Is there some Snot I didn't know about yet? o:
      Also he recorded another song called "Choose What?" that was released with the "Alive!" album and was used for Serj Tankians contribution "Starlit Eyes" for the "Strait Up" record.

    Still get goose bumps every time I listen to this song. Lynn's vocals were incredible. One of very few singers that would take the general melody of a song and sing a different melody over the top of that melody. His vocals never followed the rhythm of the guitar. This is why he was so good at what he did. Truly one of kind. Gone way to soon.
