You can hear the song here for free, but it's even better if you make a small donation, download it, and play it wherever you go. The song samples on bandcamp are low-bitrate mp3s, but by donating you can download them in much higher audio quality, even lossless.
lyrics
Black flies
Boiling over
Capsized
I don’t know what to do
Dark skies
Turning over
She cries
You’re living in a coma
And nothing gets done
Another day, another blank page
Though I know I’m under the gun
Gonna try to wake up someday
Someday
No sign
Pulling over
It was mine
But I’m only passing through
Thin line
Going over
That’s fine
I’m just living in a coma
And nothing gets done
Another day, another blank page
Though I know I’m under the gun
Gonna try to wake up someday
Gonna sing the things I can’t say
Gonna reason with the Milky Way
Gonna come alive again
Again
Brown eyes
Spilling over
She sighs
There must be something you can do
Gone dry
Rolling over
Well, I try
But I’m living in a coma
Living in a coma
