[Verse 1]

Eyes roll up, you can’t even tell me my name

I'm your blood, you can’t even tell me the same

You’re so feckless, I’m so sorry

Time’s so reckless with our bodies

(One, two, three..)


[Chorus: The Big Moon]

1, 2, 3, 4, tell her that you love her more

5, 6, 7, 8, no more time, don’t be late


[Post-Chorus]

I’ll be kind, I'll try to have a heart

But I always want more, tomorrow you're out of your clothes


[Verse 2]

I’m so tactless, I’m so sorry

Time’s been reckless with your body


[Break]

(Time’s so reckless… with our bodies)


[Bridge (with The Big Moon)]

There's no light to break this dawn

We’ve been in the dark for a while

Stuck between blankets and the piteous smiles

And the world you know is gone

I can be good if you want, I can be kind if you prefer

(She can be good if you want) I will be kind if you prefer


[Post-Bridge (Chorus: The Big Moon)]

I’ll unplug, find where the wire meets the wall

You stay calm, I’ll hold it happily on

Call me heartless, side-girl complex

We’re too honest, we’re too modest


[Outro]

You’re so feckless, I’m so sorry

Time’s been reckless with your body
