Joyride Metric

What have we started?
Reverse locomotion
Predictions and planets align
Fire my apprentice
The expert back benchers
Predict a decline

Send an explosive goodbye to my restraint
Cover my ears and close my eyes
This is our last joy ride
If the abyss doesn't hide then
When I don't want to hear I just
Cover my ears and close my eyes

And when our next joy ride
Hits an abyss and we collide
Will you cover my ears if I cover your eyes

No stop it, momentum, slow motion, collision
No stop it, momentum, slow motion, collision

Ask me a question
I'm under hypnosis
I'm conscious and barely alive
I feel terrific
Effects soporific
My honest reply
Until the opposite side
Returns full strength
