Laura Stevenson The Move Lyrics
The Move by 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
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
