Twitching buttons of volume

If only my music could swallow me whole
So I could turn to nothing and disappear,
Floating on the uneven beats and soporific bass line
All my problems would have vanished.
Moved onto another soul, another heart beating the same monotonous tune
I'd have no need to release the curtain of hair over my face
No reason to bite my tongue nor speak my words
Why would we?
And there'd be so many of us too.
Fighting the currents of sound
Before letting go finally to realise that it didn't matter.

Nothing mattered.
Not while I have my finger tip twitching over the volume buttons.

The expression "Getting lost in the music" is well expressed here.

Thank you, I remember feeling so overwhelmed when I wrote this and I wanted to portray that expression; that feeling of letting go and just giving into the music, even for a while.

I like it! Great image in that first line "If only my music could swallow me whole"... Yes!
