r.e.m. – so fast, so numb – live from st. james’s church, london / 2004 lyrics

[verse 1]
you’re moving through rough waters, motel boy!
and swimming in your sleep
how could i be so blind, missighted
not to see there’s something wounded deep?
well, anyone could scratch your surface now!
it’s all amphetamine
you’re blasting yourself into the present
to blur some past indignity, say that

[pre+chorus]
you say that you hate it
you want to recreate it
[chorus]
i’ve been around, i’ve been your lover
i let it go, k!ll devil hill
you’re coming onto something so fast, so numb
that you can’t even feel

[verse 2]
you’re drinking raw adrenal, baby
and do+si+do, saddo
you’re eating cartilage, shark eyes, shark heart, all present tense
boy, your blood is running cold
listen! this is now! this is here! this is me!
this is what i wanted you to see!
that was then, was that, that is gone, that is passed
you cast yourself, cast passed by, thrown down fast

[pre+chorus]
you say that you hate it
you want to recreate it

[chorus]
i’ve played this round, i’ve played your lover
i let it go, k!ll devil hill
you’re coming onto something so fast, so numb
that you can’t even feel
feel it!
[bridge]
you love it, you hate it
you want to recreate it
now, this is here, this is me
this is what i wanted you to see
that was then, that was that, that is passed
that is what i wanted you to feel

[pre+chorus]
you love it, you hate it
i’m spitting out the bitter pill, woah

[chorus]
i’ve been around, i’ve played your lover
i let it go to the hill
you’re coming onto something so fast, so numb
that you can’t even feel!
i’ve played this round, i’ve played your lover
i let it go, k!ll devil hill
you’re coming onto something so fast, so numb
that you can’t even feel!
you’ve played around, you played me lover
i got to go to the hill
you’re moving so hard, so fast, so numb
that you can’t even feel!
feel!
[outro]
thank you, really
this is for radio 2, i’m very honored that they would ask us
i’m very glad that everyone is here, thank you for joining us this evening
anyone who’s ever, who’s ever called themself a music journalist, please raise one hand
if the show tonight has been reviewed using the title “using my religion”
we’re gonna do several new songs for you now, and i hope you like them as much as we do
