The Present Tense
This dance, this dance
It’s like a weapon, like a weapon
Of self defense, self defense
Against the present, against the present
The present tense
I won’t get heavy, don’t get heavy
Keep it light, and keep it moving
I am doing, no harm
As my world, comes crashing down
I am dancing, freaking out
Deaf, dumb, and blind
In you I’m lost (x2)
I won’t turn around, while the penny drops
I won’t stop now, I won’t slack off
Or all this love will be in vain, o-ooh
Stop from falling down a mine
Or all this love will be in vain
O-oooh
In you I’m lost (x2)

With most Radiohead songs it takes me a few listens before I ‘understand’ the song and start to like it (if you see what I mean). But not with this song. This song really touched me and has been on my mind for a long time after the first listen. It has definitely become one of my favourite songs (it’s hard to compare music) and I hope there’ll be a studio version one day.. but the live versions are brilliant anyway.
