Special K
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Coming up beyond belief
On this coronary thief
More than just a light motif
More chaotic, no relief
I'll describe the way I feel
Weeping wounds that never heal
Can the savior be for real?
Or are you just my seventh seal?
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special k
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special k
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand
Gravity
No escaping, gravity
Gravity
No escaping not for free
I fall down hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around
I'll describe the way I feel
You're my new achilles heel
Can this savior be for real?
Or are you just my seventh seal?
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special k
Just like I swallowed half my stash
I never ever want to crash
No hesitation, no delay
You come on just like special k
Now you're back with dope demand
I'm on sinking sand
Gravity
No escaping, gravity
Gravity
No escaping not for free
I fall down hit the ground
Make a heavy sound
Every time you seem to come around
No escaping gravity
Gravity
