Killing Joke - Extremities Lyrics
Extremities confusing meAffect me night and dayFascinated, devastatedCritical decadeVanishing greeneryChanging sceneryYet somehow I acceptExtremities confusing meYet somehow I acceptWhite heat (I watch a meltdown)Cut the wood against the grainPleasure - pain (one word)ExtremitiesI'm frightenedI'm excitedAnd I cannot differenciate between the two(Can you?)Each and every one of us is watching for the signsThe days go by we count the momentsThe moments of our livesAll the time all the timeThe earthquakes came and the buildings all fell down(And the waves I saw, I saw the people slowly drown)Yes the sun grew hot and the children dehydrateI saw the soldiers burnI saw their skin just blister and breakEach and everyone of us is counting out theMoments of our lives all the time
