Hesitation |
This is no time to hesitate |
The line slips into overload; |
The mixture too thick |
The touch too close to the motherlode |
Time — there’s so little time |
To do anything that’s not useless… |
You tried for a little while |
To hide your face from the future |
Now you thought it was released |
You find that it’s captured |
It sticks to your hand, you can’t let it go |
What you knew as pain has turned into rapture |
But nothing goes away, it just changes… |
You know it’s the right tempo, the right place |
But something’s gone wrong with the cardiograph |
Oh, your day shadow and your night face |
You thought it was forever — but it doesn’t last |
This is no time to hesitate |
It’s no time to look for another road; |
The shiver begins |
The touch too cold on the motherlode |
This is no time for hesitation |
Hesitation, hesitation, hesitation |
Time, there’s so little time |
To do away with the tension; |
I try for a little while |
To put it all in suspension |
Well I thought I was released |
I find that I’m captured |
The groove sticks, it won’t let me go |
The glass stain is now seen as fractured |
And try as I may I can’t change |
But I know it’s the wrong tempo, wrong place |
And something’s gone wrong with the autograph |
Oh, the day shadow and the night face |
Conspire into prophecy… |
This is no time for hesitation |
Oh, this is no time for hesitation |
Oh, this is no time for hesitation |
Oh, this is no time for hesitation, oh no |
Yeah, this is no time for hesitation |
Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no… |
