Surface Tension
Like a bubble in a half-empty bottle of soap
Like a gallows awaiting the arrival of a rope
Like a treefull of crickets all screaming in a chorus
Like an ill-fated romance between Aquarius and Taurus
The moment is full of surface tension
And other such things, too unspeakable to mention
The lightswitch breathes lamplight into the room
Fungus on the wall looks like a bloodstained tomb
The shower starts cold, then it's lukewarm
Slick of sweat is rinsing off the hair on my arm
The moment is full of surface tension
And other such things, too unspeakable to mention
Like a slow, sad Sinatra song playing down the hall
Like a hornet's nest that's hiding barely right behind the wall
Like the falling in the stomach when the plane drops in the air
Like a nightmare you never realize is a nightmare
The moment is full of surface tension
And other such things, too unspeakable to mention
Like a gallows awaiting the arrival of a rope
Like a treefull of crickets all screaming in a chorus
Like an ill-fated romance between Aquarius and Taurus
The moment is full of surface tension
And other such things, too unspeakable to mention
The lightswitch breathes lamplight into the room
Fungus on the wall looks like a bloodstained tomb
The shower starts cold, then it's lukewarm
Slick of sweat is rinsing off the hair on my arm
The moment is full of surface tension
And other such things, too unspeakable to mention
Like a slow, sad Sinatra song playing down the hall
Like a hornet's nest that's hiding barely right behind the wall
Like the falling in the stomach when the plane drops in the air
Like a nightmare you never realize is a nightmare
The moment is full of surface tension
And other such things, too unspeakable to mention
