Snot- Absent
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

Just imagine how big this band would probably be right now if Lynn hadn't died.

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.

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.

Absent it's the best Snot song for me man, it's perfect. RIP Lynn ❤
This song goes hard. I used to show my homeboys this song. It was too much for them. All the heavy music kept me out of prison. All my homeboys got locked up.
Quite possibly the greatest swan song of all time. Just because of potential alone. Tragic is the only way you can describe it. Fuck...
Lynn it really does feel like you’re absent now bro, but your soul is sing in the music ✊🏾🤘🏾
God damn this 1 hits hard, a great example from this amazing band. SNOT 2020, long live Lynn & Dobbs.

"If it feels like I'm absent..." It certainly does, Lynn. It certainly does. :(

Iirc most of the songs on strait up were snot songs in progress whereby they just got guest vocalists to fill in (& changed some parts presumably) (the notable exception being sevendust's 'Angels son' )
To the generation that forgot how to think for yourself snot picked up where rage left off if only for a short time. Lynn you will always be in our hearts and our heads. I fell blessed to have been turned on to snot as a 16 year old kid and I will be fan for life
This is my favorite song from Snot. It's the one who give me more goosebumps.
If my memory serves me correct this was one of the closing tracks on this album. You got all these legends on this album and then Lynn and Co. just clown this shit out of everybody. The best.
Keep coming back to that song for the past 20+ years.... ahh sweet 90s

Fake / pretend lyrics: Gently my mind escapes into the relaxing world of pleasure A pleasure that'll take my mind off the reality of my life My past life Life as I know it know And whatever may come, it slowly disappears To somewhere in the back of my mind It will remain there until I wish to retrieve it Yes I will stay here for a while for I need the break A break from the pressures of life And everything that lay in the palm of life's hands, life's hands This mode is incredible It's out of this world Too bad I must always leave it But that's life Relax, it's over You belong to me, I fill your mouth with dirt! If you feel absent, *just shut up!* You are my first I can barely breathe, I find you fascinating You are my favorite Lay you down to sleep It's all that I can do to stop, love So blue, so broken, paper doll decays I haven't left you yet So cold, subversive, your eyes are full of bleach Tomorrow, I will go away again, love, Relax, it's over You belong to me, I fill your mouth with dirt! Relax, it's over You belong to me, I fill your mouth with dirt! Relax, it's over You belong to me, I fill your mouth with dirt! And if your absent, Just shut up! Relax, it's over You belong to me, I fill your mouth with dirt! Oh god, oh god Oh god, oh god, no god It makes us all one, tears us apart (shut up) Tears us apart, it tears us apart (shut up) Tears us apart (shut up, shut up) It tears us apart It cuts us up It cuts us It cuts us, it cuts us It cuts us You can't leave You are mine You will always be mine I can tear you apart I can recombine you All I want is to covet you all You belong to me Love you Love you Love you Love you Love you Love you Love you Do you, do you see? Do you see? Do you see? Do you see? My love My, my, my love Just you and I in love Just you and through it all It's you and I in love It's you and I in love It's you and I Just you and I turned around (My life) just you and I It's you and I turned around I can smell you all over me I can smell you, absent Too tragic to stay with you Too static to try for you These scars, they swallow hard The part of the past that's hollow and dark Too horrid to kill for you Too sordid to die with you Unstable as always, calm down Everything else is just dust and sound Separate, I've lost my only way Separate, I've lost my only way Separate, I've lost my only way See the shape, broken and thrown away I'd give it all away Come take it all away You can't resent the fear Somebody, tell me how I got here I'd give it all to you Come take it, it's all for you The noise is so damn loud, but Everything else is just dust and sound Separate, I've lost my only way absent
never forget!
