Science of Fear
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.
Breaks on, breaks on
The car is running empty
Breaks on breaks on
The car is runnin empty
Downhill, head on
This crash is comin slowly
Downhill head on
This crash is comin slowly
move
Or watch the slow death
Of your way of life
There's a science to fear
It plagues my mind
And it keeps us right here
And it keeps us here
My ears, my eyes
My brain is slowly bustin
black smoke red sky
The television's sayin
downhill head on
another crash is comin
downhill head on
another crash is comin
move
or watch the murder of you way of life
There's a science to fear
It plagues my mind
And it keeps us right here
And the less we know
The more we sit still
My baby's stuck on a road
That lead to nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
Breaks on, breaks on
Breaks on
Breaks on, breaks on
There's a science to fear
It plagues my mind
And it keeps us right here
And the less we know
More we sit still
sit still
My baby's stuck on a road
That lead to nowhere
Nowhere, nowhere, nowhere, nowhere
