It’s how I often feel. Playing it can be frightening because it’s like looking in the mirror. Enjoy Mezzanine here: I am not monetized on YT. Please like & subscribe 💖 (Lyrics & info below). Recollect me darling raise me to your lips 2 undernourished egos 4 rotating hips Hold on to me tightly i’m a sliding scale Can’t endure then you can inhale Clearly out of body experience Interferes and dreams of flying I fit nearly Surrounds me though I get lonely Slowly Moving up slowly Inertia keeps She’s moving up slowly Slowly Moving up slowly Interia creeps Moving up slowly She comes moving up slowly She comes moving up slowly Inertia creeps Moving up slowly She comes Moving up slowly (x2) In my home no chrome as clear as See me now with my nearest dearest Been there when i’m over-careering Room shifting is endearing Between us is our kitchen When she finds my irritant’s itching Been here before been here forever Moving up slowly Inertia keeps moving up slowly Inertia creeps moving up slowly Inertia keeps moving up slowly She comes Moving up slowly (x2) She comes moving up slowly Inertia creeps moving up slowly She comes There be no sound in my eiderdown Awake I lie in the morning blue Room is still my antenna in you Nylon burns the bedspread with 2 Gravity zero see me stall I bounce off the walls lose my footing and fall It can be sweet though incomplete though And the frames will freeze see me on all 4’s It’s been a long time She comes (x2) Comes I want to x you, she comes I want to x you, she comes I caught your radio waves I caught your radio waves With tin cans and string Say you string me along Say string me along Say inertia creeps Inertia creeps and she comes Say she comes (x4) Writer(s): Grantley Marshall, Robert Del Naja, Andrew Lee Isaac Vowles, Dennis Leigh [3D on the meaning behind Inertia Creeps – “It was just about a relationship I had been going through. It’s about being in a situation but knowing you should be out of it but you’re too fucking lazy or weak to leave. And you’re dishonest to yourself and dishonest to the other person. You’re betraying them everyday and the whole scene feels like it’s closing in on you. The idea is a combination of movements propelling yourself forward and pulling yourself back at the same time. That’s what the track’s, about—a fucked up relationship basically and there it is.”[ – September 1998].“ From:
