But nothing stops the seeping ...
The track above is the "Non-Stick Edit" of this song. It's the version I prefer. Here's the original version.
In a perfect world
You’re in control
No unexpected consequences
Would be nice
In a perfect world
You make your plans
Don’t make a move ‘till you can prove
It turns out right
Neat lines and order
Keep the world contained
In your ideal frame
Stay undercover
‘Till you know for sure
What you’re looking for
But nothing stops the seeping
You can’t prevent the leaking
The sticky of emotion
Gonna mess it up
Gonna shake it up
In a perfect world
The world conforms
To nice straight lines that you define
From what you know
In a perfect world
You make the rules
You engineer away the fear
Of letting go
Warm in the logic
Adding A to B
Gonna give you C
Hoping that knowledge
Doesn’t let you down
When you reach the ground
But nothing stops the seeping …
Might as well embrace the mess
‘Cause you’ll never tame
The inner flame
Putting faith in sequences
Is a losing game
‘Cause nothing stops the seeping
You can’t avoid the weeping
The sticky of emotion
Gonna mess it up
Gonna shake it up
Nothing stops the seeping
You can’t prevent the leaking
The sticky of emotion
Gonna mess it up
Gonna shake it up
