Lyrics: ‘How to Disappear‘ by Casey
It’s a slow ride, slipping out of focus
A steady decline, every day’s the same
It aches until you tell yourself you can’t feel it anymore
But it makes your shadow heavy as you drag it on the floor
And you’re happy til you’re not, then you’re unsure if you ever were
“You’re looking tired lately, is it getting hard to hold yourself together?”
The vespertine reluctance to stay awake and engage with anything you say
Are you keeping count of how often I dissociate when asked “is everything okay?”
When all I wanna know is how to disappear without leaving you to worry about me
It hurts to say, but I’m getting tired of running away from the same pain
Sorry if I’ve been avoiding the question
Sorry if I’ve been avoiding the question
What if you woke up to an empty bed and a note that said
“Is it disregard or discontent that lures the sparrow to its end?”
Sharp despair laid bare in the sunlight golden,
Fractured glass on an afternoon of grief unspoken.
Lately I haven’t been myself at all
Sorry if I’ve been avoiding the question, I haven’t been myself at all
Sorry if I’ve been avoiding the question, I haven’t been myself at all
When all I wanna know is how to disappear without leaving you to worry about me
It hurts to say, but I’m getting tired of running away from the same pain
“Is everything okay?” (Is everything okay, everything okay?)
“Is everything okay?” (Is everything okay, everything okay?)
“Is everything okay?” (Is everything okay, everything okay?)
“Is everything okay?” (Is everything okay, everything okay?)
Sorry if I’ve been avoiding the question
Sorry if I’ve been avoiding the question
When all I wanna know is how to disappear
It’s all I wanna know
When all I wanna know is how to disappear
It’s all I wanna know
