Slipping
Hear the creep creep of a major beat
Sleep through the nice and neat sounds of your quiet life
Never dealt with strife until it dealt with you
Lost the cause long ago, strong emotions begin to show
Flow for your life, keep moving, thats right
Keep the pace or you'll never end this race
Phased out of millenia, never knew to keep track
Now I've lost my way back, sleepless nights
Turned to dire straights, paid for with pieces of my life
Seven, eight, nine and climbing, but the timing isn't quite right
Now sing for the forgotten or loose all thats been got
Never forget we fought
Now friend, you can say what you want
