Albert Camus Lyrics by Tom Rosenthal

2020

[Verse 1]
Did you ever read Albert Camus?
The bit about how you got to turn away from the world to understand it
Did you feel this too?
I was in a mindless kind of queue
But then I went and put myself right out
Found things just got a bit wilder
[Chorus]
Haven't you heard right?
It's a truly absurd life
Tomorrow you could be a big hole
And the next day you could be a king
Can't return to my old ways
When the nothingness held up the days
And now come to think of it
I only got out of bed for you
[Verse 2]
I used to think nothing of the end
Repeating each day was my forte
Spinning out time like a spider with a web
Devouring every second, I was fed
But then I went and sailed right out, got lost
Found things just got a bit lighter
[Chorus]
Haven't you heard, love?
It's a truly absurd love
Tomorrow you could be a big kiss
And the next day you could be a stone
Can't return to my old lives
Quite oblivious to all of the signs
And now come to think of it
I only got out of bed for you
[Verse 3]
Invited to the feast
Only had one grape
Always arrived ahead of time
But turned out I was late
I can see now the world does not care
That is okay with me
So I never really needed a boat to sail out to the sea
[Chorus]
Haven't you heard right?
It's a truly absurd life
Tomorrow you could be a big hole
And the next day you could be a king
Can't return to my old ways
When the nothingness held up the days
And now come to think of it
I only got out of bed for you
Haven't you heard, love?
It's a truly absurd love
Tomorrow you could be a big kiss
And the next day you could be a stone
Can't return to my old lives
Quite oblivious to all of the signs
And now come to think of it
I only got out of bed for you
