Is This the Way - Elegant Machinery

Standing close, feeling a presence

Standing the shade

Stirring panic grips the mind

Counting down, the world is turning

Every second counts

A thousand reasons underlined

Is this the way to feel

When the lights go down and resistance slips away?

Is this the way to feel

When dignity and grace are led astray?

Is this the way to feel

When the lights go down and resistance slips away?

Is this the way to feel

When dignity and grace are led astray?

Moving sideways in slow motion

Moving as she sighs

Breathing fumes while cutting G

A growing dimness makes her doubtful

And outer closing in

These are secrets meant to keep

When dignity and grace are led astray
