I shuffle around the tectonic plates in my chest.
|
|
You know I gave it all,
|
Try to match our continents
|
To change seasonal shift,
|
To form a mutual core.
|
|
As fast as your fingernail grows,
|
The Atlantic ridge drifts
|
To counteract distance.
|
|
You know I gave it all,
|
Can you hear the effort of the magnetic strife?
|
Shuffling of columns
|
To form a mutual core.
|
|
This eruption undoes stagnation.
|
You didn't know I had it in me,
|
Withheld your love, an unspent capsule.
|
I didn't know you had it in you,
|
You hid the key to our continuity.
|
I didn't know you had it in you.
|
This eruption undoes stagnation.
|
You didn't know, you didn't know.
|
|
What you resist persists, nuance makes heat
|
To counteract distance
|
I know you gave it all,
|
Offered me harmony if things were done your way.
|
My Eurasian plate subsumed,
|
Forming a mutual core
|
|
This eruption undoes stagnation.
|
You didn't know I had it in me,
|
Withheld your love, an unspent capsule.
|
I didn't know you had it in you.
|
This eruption undoes stagnation
|
You didn't know I had it in me
|
This eruption undoes stagnation
|
You didn't know, you didn't know.
