The Snail

Digging this vibe right now
My friends are all on my side right now
My hands are no longer tied down
My frown is stuck upside down
This cape I use is my favorite noose
But right now it's hanging pretty loose
I got peace of mind
My heartbeat's alright
But what's that in the corner of my eye
I blink and it's gone
I need to move on
No time to think, the party is on
I'm cracking a joke and it's making them laugh
Who wants to hear a story from my past?

Live in the moment, live in the moment
Live in the moment, live in the moment
Don't look behind me, don't look ahead
Don't look behind me, don't look ahead

What do you call that sinking feeling of impending doom
My inner gloom
I, I see the snail in the corner of my room
It's moving closer and I can't hide
When it gets to me, I'm sure I'll die
I see the snail in the corner of my room

You've suddenly triggered a memory, heavily
Demons are beckoning
What will they get from me?
Solace is heaven, and hard to get
Hiding my scars just so I'll forget
When this party's over, my nightmare resumes
When everyone leaves, my end follows soon
I'm scared and I'm nervous and I'm holding my breath
Cause when everyone leaves, what else will be left?
My body's on fire and it's burning my chest
And I'm smelling the smoke, it's an omen of death
My eyes swell up like a water balloon
If I pop it, my tears might flood the whole room

Live in the moment, live in the moment
Live in the moment, live in the moment
Don't look behind me, don't look ahead
Don't look behind me, don't look ahead

What do you call that sinking feeling of impending doom
My inner gloom
I, I see the snail in the corner of my room
It's moving closer and I can't hide
When it gets to me, I'm sure I'll die
I see the snail in the corner of my room

Why would you do this?
Why would you do this to me?
Why would you plant that seed?
The leaves are falling on me
The leaves are falling on me
And they hurt, and they burn
And the snail waits it turn
When it catches up to me
What lesson will I learn?

What do you call that sinking feeling of impending doom
My inner gloom
I, I see the snail in the corner of my room
It's moving closer and I can't hide
When it gets to me, I'm sure I'll die
I see the snail in the corner of my room
