So Fast So Numb

You're moving through rough waters

Motor boy

And swimming in your sleep

How could I be so blind, mis-sighted

Not to see there's something wounded deep

Anyone could scratch your surface now

It's all amphetamine

You're blasting yourself into the present

To blur some past indignity, say that

You say that

You hate it

You want to re-create it

I've been around, I've been your lover

I let it go, kill devil hills

You're coming onto something so fast, so numb

That you can't even feel

You're drinking raw adrenal baby

And dosey dosey doe

You're eating cartilage, shark-eyes, shark-heart

All present tense

Boy, your blood is running cold

Listen: This is now, this is here

This is me, this is what I wanted

You to see

That was then, that was that

That is gone, that is past

You cast yourself, cast

Passed by, thrown down fast, you say

You say that

You hate it

But you want to recreate it

I've played this round, I've played your lover

I've played it out and to the hilt

You're coming onto something so fast, so numb

That you can't even feel

You love it

You hate it

You want to re-create it

Now this is here, this is me

This is what I wanted

You to see

That was then, that was that

That is gone, that is what

I wanted you to feel

You love it

You hate it

I'm spitting out the bitter pill

I've been around, I've been your lover

I let it go, kill devil hills

You're coming onto something so fast, so numb

That you can't even feel

I've played this round, I've played your lover

I've played it out and to the hilt

You're coming onto something so fast, so numb

That you can't even feel

You've played around, you played me lover

I let it go, kill devil hills

You're moving so hard, so fast, so numb

That you can't even feel
