Written by kim thayil Inspiration: greg gilmore I can't live when it lives It won't live if i die Machine has no heart to give Heart it takes could be mine Come on Come down Come out from where you hide Follows me down the river Shadows me through the sky A sideways glance in the mirror Stalemate machine in a tie Come on Come down Come out from where you hide Get up get off Get on with your life Forever means all is not seen Never means forever brings everything I fashion will and desire Always i and i survive Mercurial mind the fire Ferrivorous direction and drive Come on Come down Come out from where you hide Get up Get off Get on with your life Presently, i see myself clearer Why time i visualize I spy device in the mirror Checkmate watch machine die
