[Verse 1]

Nico come back home

Show me that you care

That love's not just a flare on my sleeve

Sleep well

I pray that cardboard boxes

Set the perfect stage

Cause wood grain makes

All man-made things

Seem so out of date

Life is not a play

It's what we make of the people we love

[Chorus 1]

Snails see the benefits

The beauty in every inch

So why, why, why, why, why, why

Are you quick to kiss?

She bites at blades and leaves

Goddamn your shrubbery

I'm sick of vanity plates

Should we move to the UK?

Cause life here in the States has escaped

All the people above

Life's what we make

Of those people we love

[Chorus 2]

Snails see the benefits

The beauty in every inch

So why, why, why, why, why, why

Are you quick to kiss

Baby

Maybe I spoke too soon

I'll touch you once you make the first move

Snails see the benefits

The beauty in every inch

[Verse 2]

I watch her as she runs

My mother jumps the gun

She puts her in her arms

That is just like my mom

Never lets go, never lets me grow old

I want to pay her back

But love is nothing you can tax

My family's not rich by any means

But I feel we won the lottery that day

The rock swallowed the girl

And I cried as cameras caught my eyes

My tears turned into butterflies

That fly away as caskets close

A new day comes

You'll wake unfold

And smile when you feel the sunlight

You feel the sunlight

[Chorus 2]

Snails see the benefits

The beauty in every inch

So why, why, why, why, why, why

Are you quick to kiss

Baby

Maybe I spoke too soon

I'll touch you once you make the first move

Snails see the benefits

The beauty in every inch

[Outro]

Snails see the benefits

The beauty in every inch
