The Moment Lyrics

I gotta get it in check

I want to wring my neck

Compulsivity

There's an animal that lives within me

A creature of habit, keeps its paws on the scales of my psyche

Id on the one side, super ego on the other

Compulsivity

Compulsivity

Count to ten and then back again

A steady hand is a trusted fried

A crawl through time and heredity

Where history comes alive

On the fringe

On the fringe of the spare time society

Anxiety

Barely holding on

Wringing fingers to the bone

You rang the bell but I hid upstairs tossing and turning alone

Anxiety

Anxiety

Waking up with half a memory of the

Common thread through all that imagery

It's rolled up tight to form a single line

It's got all of everything wrapped inside

Time's in circles, always on repeat

Like a set of waves, each one unique, but from the beach

They're like a picture, frozen and uniform

It's shot from a distance to capture the moment in time

There's a halo of angles blurring the sea with the sky

The plan is to dip after midnight

And hope to reach town by first light

Impulsivity

Always facing forward

Focused on the future

Let the winds transfix my attention, they're always blowing

Impulsivity

Impulsivity
