"Muscle Memory"
Tales from the Grid
2019

lyrics

Like riding a bike as kid it just comes naturally
One turn of the key, one push of the peddle and you’re moving
You don’t even think, it’s just like muscle memory
But two seconds can feel just like an eternity
Oh….

Once you’re in control you feel one with the machine
But it’s easy to lose focus just like in a dream
You don’t even think, it’s just like muscle memory
But two seconds can feel just like an eternity
Oh….

I have the green light….

I see the car, I push the brake but I know my fate
The airbag deploys, but it’s the last breath that I’ll take
I don’t even think, it’s just like muscle memory
But two seconds can feel just like an eternity
Oh….

I don’t even think, it’s just like muscle memory
But two seconds can feel just like an eternity
Oh….
