Downtime
from Dr. Dee's Verbal Surgery by Dr. Dee
lyrics
CRAWL TO MY ROOM,
what do i find?
TIME AFTER TIME?
down below
the predators prowl
they DRIVE too FAST
Spin around
such Passionate clowns
chasing the CLOCK
around and around and around
I Sometimes think we're all
SPELLBOUND,
we WALK BLINDLY IN
to LOVE LIKE FIRE,
LITTLE do we KNOW
that we're SPELLBOUND,
we BATHE IN THE FLAMES
and cling to pain,
BATHE IN THE SUN
while dreaming of rain
I sometimes think we're all
HELLBOUND,
we STRUGGLE
we STRUGGLE with words
but LANGUAGE is leaky,
where once we CUPPED THOUGHT in our HANDS,
Lay down and rest
dream of a LIFE OF EASE,
Throw it in a box
who's words were these?
I sometimes think we're all
SPELLBOUND
BEES will DANCE
BIRDS shall fly,
building BRIDGES to BURN when they dry,
We BATHE IN THE SUN
while dreaming of rain,
BATHE IN THE FLAMES
and cling to pain
I Sometimes think
we're all HELLBOUND
Time will tear down this mystery
in Time
we all slip
to history
Time will heal
so come close
come quick...
...Catch my disease
I some, times think
we're all, HELLBOUND
I some, times think
we're all, SPELLBOUND
what do i find?
TIME AFTER TIME?
down below
the predators prowl
they DRIVE too FAST
Spin around
such Passionate clowns
chasing the CLOCK
around and around and around
I Sometimes think we're all
SPELLBOUND,
we WALK BLINDLY IN
to LOVE LIKE FIRE,
LITTLE do we KNOW
that we're SPELLBOUND,
we BATHE IN THE FLAMES
and cling to pain,
BATHE IN THE SUN
while dreaming of rain
I sometimes think we're all
HELLBOUND,
we STRUGGLE
we STRUGGLE with words
but LANGUAGE is leaky,
where once we CUPPED THOUGHT in our HANDS,
Lay down and rest
dream of a LIFE OF EASE,
Throw it in a box
who's words were these?
I sometimes think we're all
SPELLBOUND
BEES will DANCE
BIRDS shall fly,
building BRIDGES to BURN when they dry,
We BATHE IN THE SUN
while dreaming of rain,
BATHE IN THE FLAMES
and cling to pain
I Sometimes think
we're all HELLBOUND
Time will tear down this mystery
in Time
we all slip
to history
Time will heal
so come close
come quick...
...Catch my disease
I some, times think
we're all, HELLBOUND
I some, times think
we're all, SPELLBOUND
