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 [bad word] 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 [bad word] 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 [bad word] 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 [bad word] undoes stagnation 
you didn't know i had it in me 
this [bad word] undoes stagnation 
you didn't know, you didn't know
