Well here´s the evidence of human existence
A splitting binbag next to two damp boxes
And I cannot find a name for them
They hardly show that I have lived

And the dust, it settles on these things
Displays my age again
Like a new skin made from old skin
That had barely been lived in

I didn´t need these things
I didn´t need them, oh
Pointless artifacts from
A mediocre past
So I shed my clothes, I shed my flesh
Down to the bone and burned the rest

I didn´t need these things
I didn´t need them, oh
Took them all to bits
Turned them outside in
And I left them on the floor
And ran for dear life through the door, oh

The useless objects, the gathered a storm of shit
A dim and silent shedful of your life´s supplies
When all you need´s a coffin and your Sunday best
To smarten up the end

And at the front gate, what a reward awaits
One bite of loaf from a holy ghost
An eternity of suffering
In the company of all those Christian men

I didn´t need these things
I didn´t need them, oh
Pointless artifacts
From a mediocre past
So I shed my clothes, I shed my flesh
Down to the bone and burned the rest

I didn´t need these things
I didn´t need them, oh
Took them all to bits
Turned them outside in
And I left them on the floor
And ran for dear life through the door, oh

Never need these things
I´ll never need them, oh
It´s just you I need
You´re my human heat
For the things are only things
And nothing brings me like you bring me oh

I´ll never need these things
I´ll never need them, oh
Never going back
So we can drop the past
And we´ll leave it on the floor
And run for dear life through the door, oh
