The Creatures - Tourniquet lyrics

Pushing too hard- trying too hard Force against force- negates itself You grind & you grind Time after time So tightly wound so tightly bound A strangling sound- ground to the ground Unwind & unfurl Unwind & uncurl Land locked- turned to rock Land locked- your power blocked You grind & you grind Running blind- running blind Constrictor of thought- constrictor of breath Toiling a square with a circular peg You grind & you grind Running blind- running blind Land locked- turned to rock Land locked- you power blocked Stem the flow- tourniquet Dam the tide- tourniquet Wind & you bind Time after time Pushing too hard- trying too hard Force against force- negates itself You grind & grind Time after time Stem the flow- dam the tide Turn the screw- turn the screw
