Civil War
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.
A moment of relief
Comes with every blink
Still the need returns with a vengeance
Perpetual disease
Impossible to please
I feel the need return with a vengeance
Unintentional civil war
My mind is unpredictable
I'm pining for control
Like a clock, a voice in my mind
Tick, tick, tocking all the time
And he can’t hold his tongue
I can't stop
Involuntary motion
Inevitably hoping
This will be the last time
That I can't stop
Everybody noticing
Every time I'm burdened by
Involuntary motion
Don't you move a muscle
Don't you make a sound
Only makes it worse
I wonder if I'll see
The meaning of my weakness
The resolve of the tension
A moment of relief
Comes when I realize
Who am I without the tension
Let me apologize for my tendency to be moving when I shouldn't be
Trust me, I don't want to be making a scene or anything
See, I got this thing in my head
It keeps me moving, can't stop the noise
But when I stop and think about it
Where would I be without the noise and the commotion
After all, we've all got our own type of tension
Type of involuntary civil war tearing us apart
What if we never really stop?
What if we never really stop?
What if we never really
Don’t worry about the motion
Get it out in the open
Forget about the last time
’Cause I can't stop
Everybody noticing
Every time I'm burdened by
Involuntary motion
Don't you move a muscle
Don't you make a sound
Only makes it
