Muted Songtext
von Levelline

Muted
I′m muted
I'm muted

The morning pill tastes so thin
Same hands that used to reach for skin
The deal was simple, the deal was clean
I function now, you know what I mean

Muted
I′m muted
I'm muted

It's on the billboard, it′s in the bass
It′s in the perfume, it's in the space
Between two people leaning close
Everyone′s burning
I'm the ghost

Androgen Deprivation Therapy suppresses testosterone
To starve hormone-sensitive prostate cancer of its fuel
This means most under it won′t perform sexually as
They desire


I feel it start, a signal trying to reach
Halfway to the surface, almost there
Used to land like breathing, nothing to teach
Now it dies
And I don't care

While life under ADT can be relatively normal, it is often
Perceived as loss of self and identity. There is a gap
Where sexuality once was

Past two and something shifts
Something underneath the grid
The blood remembers what the brain forgot
For thirty seconds I′m everything I'm not

I'm not muted
I′m not

The deal was simple, the deal was clean
I function now, you know what I mean
Muted
I am muted

It′s on the billboard, it's in the bass
It′s in the perfume, it's in the space

Another morning, pill against my tongue
The chemistry climbs, the signal falters
Whatever that was, it didn′t stay
The compound burned it by the break of day


Muted
Muted
I am muted
It's on the billboard, it′s in the bass
I am muted
It's in the perfume, it's in the space
Between two people leaning close
Everyone′s burning
I′m the ghost
