Lyrics
It’s ’cause, darling, when it softens, at the close before it turns When it feels right through the centre, press the centre till it burns It’s ’cause, darling, overstimulated nervous endings learn When it settles, move against it, make the settling return Quiet into quiet, underneath and circling back Quiet through another quiet, pushing pressure through the crack If it closes, if it carries, if it moves where it should land Another quiet under quiet leaves the ending underplanned It’s ’cause, darling, closing centre, centre closing where it fell Testing for the testing, pushing where the pressure tells It’s ’cause, darling, where I’m heading, where I’m heading, where it turns Centre in the closing, closing over, nothing learns Loving all the friction when we’re fucking, feel it give Loving where resistance catches, where resistance starts to live Loving all the little testing, pulling harder when it shifts Loving how the tension sharpens in the places where it grips Leaving wide a passage, leaving motion in the path Wider where it narrowed, narrowing around the aftermath Passage through another, other turning through the past Motion in the motion, moving only when it’s asked Fear is only, only fear is, till it changes what it makes Fear transmits a message, then the message overstates Sensing motion, sensing pressure, sensing fire along the nerve Ending where the fear was turning into wanting to disturb It’s ’cause, darling, when it softens, move the ending out of line When it feels right through the centre, move the centre out of time Push against the ending harder till the ending pushes back It’s ’cause, darling, all the pressure only matters when it cracks Push against the ending harder till the ending pushes back It’s ’cause, darling, all the pressure only matters when it cracks Cracks Cracks Cracks Cracks
