Thrice - Motion isn't meaning

Some good old thrice :)

Lyrics:

What a beautiful way to fake it
This sort of graceful defeat
We found a pattern out on the pavement
Sound the siren out through the streets
Advance in perfect nonchalance
Do it together with a rifle report
Dont marvel at our confidence
Its troubled, bottled, and above-all deformed

Tell me that you wanna stop the war
But baby you can't dance if there's no floor
Motion isn't meaning
Its just another drug
But it's all we've got...

What a way to keep it together
A black box, a prescription for speed
We found a freeway that goes on forever
Drown the demon in the deep black sea

Shield your eyes
It keeps burning to the rhythm of the rifle repeating
Paralyzed
But I gotta keep movin' if I wanna keep breathing

Tell me that you wanna stop the war
But baby you can't dance if there's no floor
Motion isn't meaning
Its just another drug
But it's all we've got...we've got nowhere to go

I'll take the life on the easy ship
We have our guns for the moment
Ill take the life on the easy ship
We have our guns!

"We pound a pattern out on the pavement"

...

"Advance in perfect nonchalance to the staccato of a rifle report

Don't marvel at our confidence, it's just bravado that a blindfold affords"

@heartagramgod Whats wrong with their new music?

[Alio15]

@TheVeggieMonstah This was on "If We Could Only See Us Now", it's a DVD about Thrice after Artist In The Ambulance. You can find most of the tracks from it(Eclipse, some acoustic versions of songs, and their cover of Eleanor Rigby) on some P2P source. You can also find all of first impressions, if you wanna hear very raw thrice.

Rather than "Its troubled, bottled, and above-all deformed," I think the lyrics are "It's just bravado that a blindfold affords."
