Coriolis Sense
(Smith)

In the dance of another dizzy day
Cadence failing under the heavens' sway
Damping down to null
I wonder if the hemispheres could know
That I am moving, forcing me to crawl
Tugging at my skull
Neutralizing
Drifting in the pull
Waiting for the world to fall

Might it be that in my barren land
You could grow
And with lifted hands
Color in
You know I'd bring it to you

From my window I see it turn again
Full rotation and I am in the spin
Out of my control
I never sleep 'cause I feel it all the time
Acceleration and slowing down my mind
Anchored to the poles
And gravity is
Heavy with its toll
Waiting for the world to fall

Might it be that in my barren land
You could grow
And with lifted hands
Color in
You know I'd bring it to you

Waiting for the world to fall
Waiting for the world to fall
Waiting for...
