Moving Too Fast
From The Messy Middle
Moving Too Fast
Lyrics
(Up, up, down, down, scroll)
I'm thumbing through a decade in a minute and a half I see a tragedy, then I see a viral laugh There's no time to feel it, there's no time to think I'm trying to take a sip, but I'm falling in the sink (whoa) The colors are blurring, the headlines are screaming I can't tell if I'm awake or if I'm just dreaming
The floor is moving and the walls are spinning I'm losing the game but I thought I was winning I can't catch my breath, I can't make it last Everything is moving too fast
My eyes are getting heavy but I can't look away I've forgotten what I've done with the middle of the day It's a frictionless slide, it's a bottomless hole And I'm losing every bit of my self-control (just one more) (maybe just one more) The sun went down and I didn't even notice
The floor is moving and the walls are spinning I'm losing the game but I thought I was winning I can't catch my breath, I can't make it last Everything is moving too fast
(Wait) (Hold on) (Stop the feed) The world is a blur, the world is a rush I'm looking for a pause, I'm looking for a hush But the wheel keeps turning (faster) (faster!)
The floor is moving and the walls are spinning I'm losing the game but I thought I was winning I can't catch my breath, I can't make it last Everything is moving too fast
(Too fast) (It's all moving) (Everything is moving too fast) (Sudden silence)
