Nick of Time Lyrics by Stabscotch

Uncanny Valley

0

My spine is tingling
I've only got one shot so
When I ask they only say...
Tricycle spinning
What do you mean right now
It's like the picture's bout to foam...
Jiminy's creeping
The room's cooking one pot
But that's no bueno if you see...
Tigers in cities
I think they know somehow
To me the face looks right to be...
Dry heats of sober
Fallacies fuck, in and out
I can't be sorry when I feel...
Ten, nine, eight, you, ta-da!

Witches don't see me
Can't find my traces
As you seem to believe death won't leave you in pieces
I urge you, don't blink
As I fall into a happy catastrophe
So please try and chase me
I'm past it, where's after
I ain't just plastered, I'm on my own bad rapture
Until I freeze
But I ain't chosen
I'm just as scared
Until the teeny dots spell out and they tell me
Take it, take it

Damn
Until the windows flip the floor
Buttering down the slope
To be mesmerized by a flow with such dizzying timbres
Don't you know it's a disaster
Pssst goes the wind gripping teeth on my bones
I think my name's something going like...
I bother to pretend in my magic gymnastics
If I'm not careful, they might say...
Sunk deep by phantoms that cut up the stone
I can't help that I'm buried in their home
What is a god to the men under his feet
I know he sleeps in the space that I live
It's all so vivid if you come out to play
I slip through the nick of time

Witches don't see me
As you seem to believe death won't leave you in pieces
I urge you, don't blink
As I fall into a happy catastrophe
So please try and chase me
I'm past it, where's after
I ain't just plastered

As you seem to believe it will dim like a dream
As you seem to believe it will dim like a dream

By all means, don't wait for me
My desire to remain has defeated my dream
I was unharmed but for no such sake
To them, it's only good when you're sleeping with apes
I beat their own game cause my cause affects rapidly
When double taking, see all the chasing speaks out my eyes
Deja vu panic, spinning world in sight
No surprise I'm finding, or is it creeping on me?
Guess nothing's over, but how could I forget?
As I sit and think of all the lather and roving and
Damn, I'm getting cuts on my toes
But it won't kill me right, if I'm right in time?
Hell with fast breathing, I'm just surfing the flow
I won't return to petty heckles and sleeping
Moths to the flame only burned when cornered
Without the world's face they breathe...
Strings and whispers, they slash like rain
Someone else is on the edge of town
I don't know home but when I come, I'll let you know
I live through forever

Foul checkered floors paved the road before I knew to stray
Painted blisters bleed across my face
Without a story, I've come to know
The joke of a wicked mistress
