A Nervous Tic Motion of the Head to the Left
Surviving Collisions: Unveiling Life's Nervous Tic
Lyrics
Overprescribed
Feeling overmedicated
Under the mister
Seeking solace under a water source
We had survived to
Survived a situation
Turn on the History Channel
Choosing to watch historical content on TV
And ask our esteemed panel
Turning to experts for answers
Why are we alive?
Questioning the purpose of life
And here's how they replied
Experts' response to the question
You're what happens when two substances collide
Individual's existence resulting from chance encounters
And by all accounts you really should have died
Despite all odds, the individual survived
Stretched out on a tarmac
Describing a location on a runway
Six miles south of North Platte
Geographical reference in North Platte
He can't stand to look back
Difficulty in reflecting on the past
Sixteen tons of hazmat
A hazardous material of significant weight
It goes undelivered
Package remains undelivered
Undelivered
Reiteration of non-delivery
It's a nervous tic motion of the head to the left
Introduction of the titular nervous tic motion
It's a nervous tic motion of the head to the left
Repetition for emphasis
Of the what, of the head to the left
Clarifying the object of the motion
So exercise yourselves to your bereft
Encouraging physical activity to overcome emptiness
'Cause it's a nervous tic motion of the head to the left of the, of the, to the
Continuation of the description of the tic motion
Splayed out on a bath mat
Another location reference, this time in South Platte
Six miles north of South Platte
Yearning to reclaim a lost life
He just wants his life back
Expressing a desire for a return to normalcy
What's in that paper nap sack
Curiosity about the contents of a bag
It goes undelivered
Reiteration of undelivered items
Undelivered
Emphasizing the non-arrival of expected things
It's a nervous tic motion of the head to the left
Reiteration of the nervous tic motion
A nervous tic motion of the head
Further emphasis on the tic motion
Head to the left
Specifically mentioning the head movement
It's a nervous tic motion of the, of the, to the left
Restating the nature of the tic motion
It's a nervous tic motion of the head to the, of the, of the head of the head to the
Complicated repetition of the description
Over imbibed
Excessive consumption of substances
Under the mister
Returning to the source of comfort under mist
Barely alive we cover the blisters in flannel
Surviving in a barely alive state, addressing wounds
Though the words we speak are banal
Communication using mundane words
Now one of them's a lie
Admission of a falsehood among spoken words
Now one of them's a lie
Reiteration of a lie within the spoken words
Happens when two substances collide
Revisiting the concept of chance encounters
And by all accounts you really should have died
Despite odds, survival continues to be unexpected
