Absence Songtext
von Money for the Toll

Absence makes the heart forget
And the eyes look elsewhere
Absence helps the heart grow cold
Love isn′t in the perfect eyes

Absence helps the bleeding heart
Who am I to lose faith?
Absence breeds the better man
But only in my mind

I've seen it coming from day one
I know you′re going mad
I've read the writing on the wall
With a magnifying glass

Regret the pain you feel today
When all is lost tomorrow
Simplify this broken feeling
That stabs me in the back


The coldness breathing down my spine
Amplifies my fear
Absence masquerade my sorrow
Until another day

Alone, I pass through the day
Yet you follow far behind

I know that you've grown sick of me
I′m reminded all the time
I see this pain′s confusing you
This darkness leaves me blind

I sit alone in silence yet
I hear your voice so clear
A nearness I have never felt
To one who isn't here

Alone, I pass through the day
Yet you follow far behind
I scream from the top of my lungs
With a voice I′ve learned to hide

Regret the pain you feel today
When all is gone tomorrow
Amplify this bitter feeling
That's bleeding from my eyes


Absence makes the heart forget
And the eyes look inside
Absence breeds the better man
But only in my mind

Alone, I pass through the day
Yet you follow far behind
I scream from the top of my lungs
With a voice I′ve learned to hide
