[Riff 2] x8 /w lyrics:
Things crawl in the darkness that imagination spins.
Needles at your nerve ends crawl like spiders on your skin.
Pou - pou - pou - pounding in your temples, and a surge of adrenalin.
Every muscle tense to fence the enemy within.
[Riff 3] x1
[Riff 3] x2 /w lyrics:
I'm not not giving in to security under pressure,
I'm not missing out on the promise of adventure,
I'm not giving up on implausible dreams,
Experience to extremes, experience to extremes...
[Guitar tacet] while keyboard and bass imply [Riff 2] x4
[Riff 2] x8 /w lyrics:
Suspicious looking stranger flashes you a dangerous grin.
Shadows across your window, was it only trees in the wind?
Every breath a static charge, a tongue that tastes like tin.
Steely-eyed outside to hide the enemy within.
[Riff 3] x1
[Riff 3] x2 /w lyrics:
I'm not not giving in to security under pressure,
I'm not missing out on the promise of adventure,
I'm not giving up on implausible dreams,
Experience to extremes, experience to extremes...
[Riff 4] x8
[Riff 1] x3
To you is it movement or is it action? Is it contact or just reaction?
And you, revolution, just resistance? Is it living or just existence?
Yeah you, it takes a little more persistance to get up and go the
A A
distance.
[Riff 3] x2 /w lyrics:
I'm not not giving in -
I'm not missing out -
I'm not giving up on implausible dreams,
Experience to extremes...
[Riff 3] x2 /w lyrics:
I'm not not giving in to security under pressure,
I'm not missing out on the promise of adventure,
I'm not giving up on implausible dreams,
___(some kind of weird chord here
\/ can't make it out)
Experience to extremes, experience to extremes...
