Lyrics Fear and the Nervous System

Fear and the Nervous System

Slow Motion

UNTIL I HEAR THOSE VOICES ROAR AGAIN

YOU COULD MISTAKE ME FOR A MADMAN

YOU’LL NEVER MOVE FROM HERE IN THIS POSITION

CALLING OUTWARDS

UP TO THE HEAVENS

EVERYTHING AROUND ME SEEMS TO MOVE

SEEMS TO MOVE IN SLOW MOTION

DID I LEAVE THIS ONE TOO MUCH ALIVE

DO I WANT TO REMEMBER

AND DID SHE SCRATCH MY NAME OUT AS SHE DIED

LOCKED IN MOTION

IN CONSTANT TREMOR

AFTER HOURS

THE ONLY DOCTOR

OPEN TO ATTACK AS I APPROACH THE DOORSTEP

WE TREAD ON THE KILLING FIELDS

EVERYTHING AROUND ME SEEMS TO MOVE

SEEMS TO MOVE IN SLOW MOTION

DID I LEAVE THIS ONE TOO MUCH ALIVE

DO I WANT TO REMEMBER

DID SHE SCRATCH MY NAME OUT AS SHE DIED

EVERYTHING AROUND ME SEEMS TO MOVE IN SLOW MOTION

CAUGHT AT FULL FLICKER

MY MIND IS ALWAYS ON

YOUR COMMITMENT FALLS FLAT

WITH THAT HESITATION

DO YOU CALL THIS MURDER

YEAH, THIS IS NEARLY OVER

IN THIS RITUAL OF THE HIGHEST ORDER

MY LOVE TAKES THE SHAPE

OF A SPADE OR A DAGGER

WHEN YOU STAND THERE

MARKED AS A TRAITOR

YOU KNOW

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAID FOR

DID I LEAVE THIS ONE TOO MUCH ALIVE

DO I WANT TO REMEMBER

DID SHE SCRATCH MY NAME OUT AS SHE DIED

LOOK AT YOU ALL

WHO REALLY MADE THOSE TEARS FALL

LOOK AT YOU ALL
