E-Motion
The speed of lust
The fury of pain
Pitch dark feelings
Wrapped in a ball of flame… 'that’s emotion'
As the storm of sensation
And your heart collide
And it’s like the ocean
Bashing against the rocks at high tide… 'that’s emotion'
As the emotional roller coaster
Dips twist and turns
You can feel the winds friction
Yet you yearn for the burn
Traveling faster and faster
Without safety’s concern
You crash and free fall into a bottomless pit
Realizing emotion is long term.... 'It's forever'
Rushing through your veins
Like adrenaline for the brain
You can feel the battle between love and hate
Making you cry for novocaine …..'that’s emotion'
-E- is gasoline
-MOTION- is its fire
Never fully satisfied
Yet its sparked by desire
An incredible encounter
Overwhelming in its capacity
Emotion is the master of manipulation
Dealing cards of joy and tragedy
So don’t worry be happy
But be afraid be very afraid
Although laughter is good medicine
An overdose will cause stress and strain… 'that’s emotion'.
