Emily Shore

Lyrics

Say something, why won’t you say something?
you are a bottle of bubbly all shook up
capped with a cork made of shame.
Say something, why won’t you say something?
you won’t open up ‘cause you’re wearing all white
and you will not stand for a stain,
so mum’s your only word until you

Move something, why won’t you move something?
you sit like a greek statue no nose no arms,
waiting for limbs to return.
Move something, why won’t you move something?
the discus is thrown and your stone self is setting,
but you won’t let your eyes set on you,
you don’t want to believe it’s true,

It’s true you’re inside a bubble rising up towards the sun
it’s true it’s true, you’re burning up all alone,
but you won’t tell anyone,
yet watch as your friends they still come to waive you down,

Let them waive you down,
you’re a mole who’s been mining that mountain for gold
thinking one chunk will fill your heart’s hole.
waive you down, let them waive you down.
you’ll be astounded once your feet have grounded
to find more precious things to hold,
like my body when you’re cold.
