From small pins to fiery burns,

These are the signals of my dying nerves

Singed by the heat of your lines and curves

Into a fire that could scorch the earth



I'm going through the motions

I'm going through the motions

I'm going through 'em

But I can't remember how to feel



If this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical

Oh if this is chemical

Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science

If this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses



From small shocks to surgin' bolts

These are the signals of my spinal post

Sent down the wires through their lines and folds

Into a riot on my frontal lobe



I'm going through the motions

I'm going through the motions

I'm going through the motions

I'm going through 'em

But I can't remember how to feel



Since I ran my hands over you

Nothing else will ever do now

To cool me down



If this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical

Oh if this is chemical

Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science

If this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical

Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses



Since I ran my hands over you

Nothing else will ever do

Since I ran my hands over you

Nothing else will ever do

Since I ran my hands over you

Nothing else will ever do now

To cool me down.



If this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical

Oh if this is chemical

Then I am not afraid to be bound to the impulses of science

If this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical,

Oh if this is chemical

Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses of science

If this is chemical

If this is chemical

If this is chemical

If this is chemical

I can't remember how to feel



If this is chemical,

If this is chemical,

If this is chemical,

If this is chemical,

Then I am not ashamed to be owned by the impulses of science
