Luke Hemmings - Motion Lyrics

Luke Hemmings Lyrics

"Motion"

With every sundown I feel alone
These hands are strangers, they ain't my own
My eyes are lying
My eyes are lying to me

With every comedown, nowhere to go
This simple silence is all I know
You know I'm trying
You know I'm trying to leave

All this running in motion
Time slips by until you're lost in your mind
Who you gonna find?
Who you gonna find?
Can't you call in the sculptors and paint a sky
You know I wanna live inside
Who you gonna find?
Who you gonna find?

I know it's hiding
Somewhere within
I'm just a makeup of words that I spin
All my desires
Made of my arrogance

Took a walk in the neighborhood
Float away and it's gone for good
There's some things that I never know
Searching for a miracle
(Will it be enough?)

All this running in motion
Time slips by until you're lost in your mind
Who you gonna find?
Who you gonna find?
Can't you call in the sculptors and paint a sky
You know I wanna live inside
Who you gonna find?
Who you gonna find?
Who you gonna find?

(Will it be enough?)
(Will it be enough?)

Luke Hemmings said "Motion" was about "having a sense of distrust with the way you perceive your own thoughts and the way the world moves around you". "It was written about a time when I felt like the voices in my head weren't my own, and my sense of reality felt blurred," he explained in a statement.
