Staying on an even keel
Keeping a gauge
Sanity hangs in the balance
(I) could go either way

Cerebral half life
The darkest summer days
My pressure defences melting away

'Cause I can't level this brimming, seething dread
My pressure defences melting away

With anxiety I'm burning!
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/n/napalm+death/corrosive+elements_20097688.html ]
Stripping down to the core

Corrosive elements inducing
Corrosive elements that sap being
Corrosive elements inducing
Corrosive elements that sap being (x2)

Corrosive elements - joy toxin
Corrosive elements - please cleanse me!
Corrosive elements - joy toxin
Corrosive elements - please cleanse me! (x2)
