“Motion Sickness” is the opening track of Neck Deep’s third album The Peace and The Panic. It talks about the changes the band has gone through after the release of Life’s Not Out To Get You. It touches on Ben Barlow’s father and his passing and how one should appreciate life. Ben says:
When we wer...
[Verse 1]
It's time to kick the habit, I'm coming clean
It's been a hell of a ride but it's all caught up with me
And now I'm off track
Feel like I'm right back where I started
Sat on the kitchen floor all alone talking to a ghost
About where we go when we go
He said, "Life is the great unknown"
Better jump, better run and
[Chorus]
Don't stop now
Though the motion sickness has you spinning out
'Cause you're on your way
Oh, my friend, just look how far you've come and
Think twice before you go and throw it all away
[Verse 2]
Between the peace and the panic
I can't break up the static
I need a cleaner frequency
I frequently burn out and vanish
I'm on another planet
There's just no getting through to me
But then I find myself in bed
Lost inside my head again
Running over everything
The voices, they are deafening
But out from the noise
I hear that familiar voice
He says "Life is the great unknown"
Better jump, better run, better go
Better jump, run
[Chorus]
Don't stop now
Though the motion sickness has you spinning out
'Cause you're on your way
Oh, my friend, just look how far you've come and
Think twice before you go and throw (Throw!) it all away
[Bridge]
'Cause you're on your way
(You're on your way)
'Cause you're on your way
'Cause you're on your way
[Chorus]
Don't stop now
Though the motion sickness has you spinning out
'Cause you're on your way
Oh, my friend, just look how far you've come and
Think twice before you go and throw (Throw!) it all away
[Outro]
Before you throw it all away
Before you throw it all away

Ben Barlow said in an interview:
We wanted a bridge song between Life’s Not Out To Get You and this album. It was a demo idea we’d had sitting around for ages. It’s one that my brother, Seb, was heavily involved in. He had the idea of having the super-punchy, stabby chorus. It’s a straight-up pop p...
Ben Barlow shared in an interview with Alternative Press
Straight away with this song, even before there were vocals on it, it had the feel of an album opener. Lyrically, too, it gave me a nice place to set up what I wanted to say across the record as a whole and how we wanted the thing to feel. Th...
