lyrics

Each step could be my last one
And so I probe them
With deep suspicion
The ground is moss on rocks underwater
Progress is slow
And comes fraught with danger
If I should mis-step or lose my footing
I could be carried rapidly downstream
And (even) if I get safe
I’ll be in bad shape
And then the ambulances will come
Then by my bedside, you’ll be there
Dwelling upon the pressure
That you’re under

=2(Your flailing arms
Took down a power line
So now we live
With nasty battery lights)


Self-stirred into a frenzy
For the last hour, I have been waking
Recovering from a lengthy surgery
(They) put a detective
Somewhere inside me
Now I’m a monster
What have they done to me
Now my blood burns with paranoia
There’s always breaking twigs
All around me
I twitch at every single sound

=2(Your flailing arms
Took down a power line
So now we live
With nasty battery lights)
