Nerves lyrics

Nerve ends tick in flicker book animation

One eye's closed in fear, anticipation

Will it stay shut? Will it ever open?

What if?

What if?

Nerves.

Tell tale tongues lick at seven senses

Brittle spittle sparks you are defenseless

The fabric of dreams is ripped apart

As you feel the twist of the shadowed dagger

In your pumping heart

Nerves like nylon, Nerves like steel

Nerves like nylon, Nerves like steel

Nerves like nylon, Nerves like steel

A trail of random cutlery cuts a dash in the concrete underpass

Sense of serenity is shattered in the glint of splintered glass

Nerves.

Nerves.

Nerves.

Nerves.

Nerves like nylon, Nerves like steel×13]
