Take It Easy (Love Nothing)

Lyrics

First with your hands, then with your mouth
 A downpour of sweat, damp cotton clouds
 I was a fool, you were my friend
 We've made it happen
 You took off your clothes, left on the light
 You stood there so brave, you used to be shy
 Each feature improved, each movement refines
 And eyes like a showroom
 Now they're spreading out the blankets on the beach
 But that weatherman's a liar, he said it'd be raining
 But it's clear and blue, as far as I can see
 Left by the lamp, right next to the bed
 On a cartoon cat pad, she scratched with a pen
 "Everything is as it has always been
 This never happened"
 "Don't take it too bad, it's nothing you did
 Just once something dies, you can't make it live
 You're a beautiful boy, you're a sweet little kid
 But I am a woman"
 So I laid back down, wrapped myself up in the sheet
 And I must have looked like a ghost, 'cause something frightened me
 And since then I've been so good at vanishing
 Now I do as I please, and I lie through my teeth
 Someone might get hurt, but it won't be me
 I should probably feel cheap, but I just feel free
 And a little bit empty
 No, it isn't so hard to get close to me
 There'll be no arguments, we will always agree
 And I'll try and be kind when I ask you to leave
 We'll both take it easy
 But if you stay too long inside my memory
 I will trap you in a song tied to a melody
 And I'll keep you there, so you can't bug me
