Unlike the majority of this album, this song shows a slower tempo while still thriving in the intensity of the other songs. This layout of slower melodic but still powerful punk rock would evolve into the alternative rock sound that Hüsker Dü would pioneer.
It's only getting darker
It may be moving faster
Well it won't stop spinning
But how long will it remain?
This repulsive world
The crimes we all commit
It's not your gravity
It's not your gravity
Gravity
The tension keeps building
The changes are rapid
We're through competing
Is it better to retreat?
This repulsive world
The crimes we all comit
It's not your gravity
It's not my gravity
Gravity
