The Present Tense Lyrics

Cover art for The Present Tense lyrics by Thom Yorke

I like the way he says "It's no ones business but mine" love his voice. But the meaning of this... i do not know.

I think this is about trying to escape one's life through music, etc. so that we keep going without giving up... there's a very strong sense of hope in the future in this song, so even though the music is very sad, it's very positive, very assertive. Love the line 'it's no ones' business but mine'.
