God's away (Bss Bsssbss)

You bought midge spray from the kiosk-man for a buck, for a buck
If you're hoping though
that this will help against them
You're our of luck, you're out of luck
The sun is sinking, the sun is sinking, the sun is sinking
There's a hole, there's a hole in the midges net
No wind, no breeze, no light
Who are the ones left in charge?
The midges rule the night
God's away, God's away, God's away
Bss Bsssbss, bsssbss
God's away, God's away, God's away
Bss Bsssbss, bsssbss

Sitting in the shadows even for a short rest
You're fucked, you're fucked
Black clouds rising like
a plague and a flood
Just pack up, just pack up
It's all over, it's all over, it's all over
There's a hole, there's a hole in the midges net
No wind, no breeze, no light
Who are the ones left in charge?
The Midges rule the night
God's away, God's away, God's away
Bss Bsssbss, bsssbss
God's away, God's away, God's away
Bss Bsssbss, bsssbss

Goddamn you are already covered in bites
They got you good, got you good
Everything itches and gets worse and worse
And it won't heal, it won't heal
God's away, God's away, God's away
Bss Bsssbss, bsssbss
God's away, God's away, God's away
Bss bsssbss, bsssbss
You cover you face with your sleeping bag
Try to sleep, try to sleep
God's away, God′s away, God′s away
Bss bsssbss,
