The Move - Laura Stevenson

These two back teeth are ground meat

I’ve barely slept this week

But you’re lovely in the morning, oh

Reminding me why I should be sorry

Say, «I love your brain, but I hate it when it pushes me away.»

Well, it’s been down and now, you’re finally finding out

That I’m not supposed to get better

But I said I won’t be quite like this forever

'Cause I’m a liar and a thief

Well, there’s an easy way to wind your watch

Come here and take it off

I’ll keep it safely in the back where I can clean it

I mean it, there is no time like the present

Or something just as stupid

I’ll tell you I can make you happy

I can make you coffee when I wake up

If you haven’t made some already

There’s a ticking, but it’s subtle

And you barely even notice

But you’ll know it when your eyes, they start to focus

'Til then I’m around in a hot room by myself

Organizing all the ways

That I could take all of the things you love away

So I put it on you, 'cause it’s easier to do

I watch you smoke until you know me

'Til you’re dizzy and you’re lonely

Make the move

I am leaving it up to you
