Lyrics

[00:01.84] Why can’t you give her room?
[00:09.78] Respect her spatial needs.
[00:21.68] I feel you compress her
[00:29.77] into a small space.
[00:39.28] With clairvoyance,
[00:43.27] she knew what you needed,
[00:47.15] and gave it to you.
[00:55.24] Now her desires are repressed;
[01:01.12] arrows in the flesh
[01:05.74] When she found your love,
[01:13.68] her nature bowed her head;
[01:21.80] she surrendered,
[01:23.83] she renounced the world for you,
[01:31.58] now she’s poisoned by demands
[01:37.49] you cannot answer.
[01:43.06] Why this sacrifice?
[01:47.06] Now she regrets the whole thing,
[01:51.59] a delayed reaction
[01:59.15] when she left her craft voluntarily
[02:07.07] for your nest, for your love.
[02:12.15] Did you understand?
[02:17.51] Appreciate,
[02:24.46] build a bridge to her.
[02:31.53] Initiate a touch
[02:41.68] before it’s too late,
[02:47.58] say the words to her
[02:55.81] that will make her shine.
[03:04.67] Tell her that you love her.
[03:24.72] Your generosity will show
[03:27.48] in the volume of her glow.
