lyrics
It's always something, always something
Watch as my restless mind starts erupting.
I'll drink my water, I'm torn asunder
Let it's metallic warmth take me under
As I lay there, as I lay there
Keeping still and focusing my muscles
My words will stumble, I'm in trouble
Big ideas in tiny thought bubbles.
Scanners turn and twist in their sockets
White lighters fall out of pockets
Always turning, moving their gears
How it seems like it might take years now
I hope it's nothing, hope it's nothing
All I have is you who I am trusting
You're asking questions, I've got confessions
I don't remember noticing progressions
As I lay there, as I lay there,
Keeping still I hear your people coming
Mind is racing, body shaking,
gears are humming, machines are quaking and
Scanners turn and twist in their sockets
White lighters fall out of pockets
Always turning, moving their gears
How it seems like it might take years now.
It's always something, always something
See the nervous wreck that I'm becoming
You say it's over and that I'm ready
I can't help but look at you with envy
Now I sit here, now I sit here
keeping still I feel your people coming
It's always something, always something
I hope it's nothing, I hope it's nothing now
Scanners turn and twist in their sockets
White lighters fall out of pockets
Always turning, moving their gears
How it seems like it might take years now.
Fill me up with your radiation.
Watch as my restless mind starts erupting.
I'll drink my water, I'm torn asunder
Let it's metallic warmth take me under
As I lay there, as I lay there
Keeping still and focusing my muscles
My words will stumble, I'm in trouble
Big ideas in tiny thought bubbles.
Scanners turn and twist in their sockets
White lighters fall out of pockets
Always turning, moving their gears
How it seems like it might take years now
I hope it's nothing, hope it's nothing
All I have is you who I am trusting
You're asking questions, I've got confessions
I don't remember noticing progressions
As I lay there, as I lay there,
Keeping still I hear your people coming
Mind is racing, body shaking,
gears are humming, machines are quaking and
Scanners turn and twist in their sockets
White lighters fall out of pockets
Always turning, moving their gears
How it seems like it might take years now.
It's always something, always something
See the nervous wreck that I'm becoming
You say it's over and that I'm ready
I can't help but look at you with envy
Now I sit here, now I sit here
keeping still I feel your people coming
It's always something, always something
I hope it's nothing, I hope it's nothing now
Scanners turn and twist in their sockets
White lighters fall out of pockets
Always turning, moving their gears
How it seems like it might take years now.
Fill me up with your radiation.
