Here you are
Home alone
Lying on the hardwood
Just you and your headphones
You've got one window
One pillow, one moment
To forget
The sirens outside
And the sirens within
Peering at nothing
Though it looks like the ceiling
Your mind slows
When you're overcome
With this feeling
With the chance to stop
To let go and just drop
The pushes and shoves
The monotony of life
Black Dice cuts it away
Cuts it away like a knife
The beep, bleep, beep
Jitter, rattle and shake
The noise that sounds
Like it's
Just about to break
The noise
It cries
Cries so much
It sounds human
You think you hear voices
You think you hear screams
You think you hear somebody
Having a really bad dream
But they're machines that repeat
Squeak, shatter and shriek
Moving up, snapping back
All out of order
And at the same time
Right on track
The beats that build
The bubbles that burst
The keys, they trickle
And the synth
It thirsts
Thirsts to press on
On into the depths
Dark and alone
Into the depths of black holes
Where it feels most at home
Like it or not
With it you'll go
On warped flashes of noise
Hypnotic light
Pulled from the heads
From the heads
Of three boys
The noise
It'll dismantle you
An escape all its own
This is the noise
You play
When you're
Home all alone
