The Motions

Album: Alter The Ending (2009)

  • From small pins to fiery burns
    These are the signals of my dying nerves
    Singed by the heat of your lines and curves
    Into a fire that could scorch the earth

    I'm going through the motions
    I'm going through the motions
    I'm going through the motions
    I'm going through 'em
    But I can't remember how to feel

    If this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science
    If this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses

    From small shocks to surgin' bolts
    These are the signals from my spinal post
    Sent down the wires through their lines and folds
    Into a riot on my frontal lobe

    I'm going through the motions
    I'm going through the motions
    I'm going through the motions
    I'm going through 'em
    But I can't remember how to feel

    Since I ran my hands over you
    Nothing else will ever do now
    To cool me down

    If this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science
    If this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses

    Since I ran my hands over you
    Nothing else will ever do
    Since I ran my hands over you
    Nothing else will ever do
    Since I ran my hands over you
    Nothing else will ever do now
    To cool me down

    If this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science
    If this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Oh if this is chemical
    Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses of science
    If this is chemical
    If this is chemical
    If this is chemical
    If this is chemical
    I can't remember how to feel

    If this is chemical
    If this is chemical
    If this is chemical
    If this is chemical
    Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses of science Writer/s: CHRISTOPHER ANDREW CARRABBA
