White Noise - White Hinterland

The men on my mother’s side

And some women too

Shared the same disease

Of unquenchable thirst

And likewise I’m afflicted

I cannot be satisfied

Hunger for what makes me ill

My eyes are full of dollar signs

Don’t leave me on my own

Don’t leave me on my own

I need white noise

I’m willing to pay the cost

I’m willing to pay the cost

Just give me white noise

All racked I run to the ziggurat

Press my temple down to the sound

Oh it fills my spirit, spills out my cup

Don’t dare shake me out

Do not confuse me lying still

With one who lies at rest

Silence more deafening

Than the cry of every man

Don’t leave me on my own

Don’t leave me on my own

I need white noise

And I’m willing to pay the cost

I’m willing to pay the cost

Just give me white noise

The years, they go, so I won’t see

The years, they go, so I won’t see

The years, they go, so I won’t see

The years, they go, so I won’t see

The years, they go, so I won’t see

The years, they go, so I won’t see
