Tension

I'm in control in this domain
I feel at home inside the maze
It keeps me safe, it keeps me clean
I step aside into the shade

I'm here to watch, to read the signs
I walk alone, I go unseen
From place to place, in fading light
I move ahead along the tracks

Pre-millennium tension
Your premonition
Your guillotine
Pre-millennium tension
Your premonition
Your guillotine
Pre-millennium tension

There's something wrong, you feel it too
I read your mind: an open book
I sense your fears, it's in your bones
A grinding stone a crushing load

You dream at night, in shallow sleep
The demons' breath is in the air
It will not pass, these are the days
So pay attention, you are not alone

Pre-millennium tension
Your premonition
Your guillotine
