|
Not for the first time |
|
Blood on the gym floor |
|
Arcs like a rainbow round |
|
Not so appalling |
|
To wring my own neck |
|
Names on the gauze; absent |
|
Play along |
|
'Cause I know the chords, muscle memory |
|
Play along |
|
'Cause I know the chords, muscle memory |
|
Wisdom |
|
Is clumsy |
|
Enlightened |
|
By stereo evangelists listen |
|
To decode |
|
So badly |
|
The meanings in allegory |
|
Take what seems to get you down |
|
And follow misinterpretations |
|
Play along |
|
'Cause I know the chords, muscle memory |
|
Play along |
|
'Cause I know the chords, muscle memory |
|
Gracious |
|
But casual |
|
Hang on |
|
To every word transmitted from playlists |
|
And albums |
|
Just knowing |
|
The fawning is just secondary |
|
Left inhibitions at the door |
|
Regrets are met with open arms |
|
Play along |
|
'Cause I know the chords |
|
Play along |
|
Muscle memory |
|
You'd like me better if I liked you less |
|
Clumsy |
|
And awkward |
|
In public |
|
You spill around in stationary motion |
|
Seasick |
|
From speaking |
|
The morals of your influence |
|
Limbs cast fondly to the sea |
|
Remember who you used to be? |
|
Play along |
|
'Cause I know the chords, muscle memory |
|
Play along |
|
'Cause I know the chords, muscle memory |
