letra de moving in place - shauna dean cokeland

did your eyes get wide and all excited?
you were like fifteen, discovered nitrous
spending every night on empty beaches
with the same four kids you’d never sleep with

now you’re without it
you can’t party anymore so you go and make a record about it
the hometown drug scene
every fourteen year old restless brat’s wet dream
sporting the same shades, same tank top, same blue jeans
hit the same beach and drink the same vodka sweet tea
unfairly pass the blame and claim it was generational
predisposition tourney prestigious, invitational
like, don’t look at me, i wasn’t even conceived
when the scheme, the game, became operational
i’m a poser, you said it yourself
don’t expect me not to pose when the cameras come out
you missed the lesson on looking out for yourself
may not be on the up and up, but i’m on the up and out

take me to the far side of the beach
before it falls into the ocean
before you notice i’m eroding
i know you don’t wanna be lonely
i know you don’t wanna be lonely
the sun and the substances you’d choke down
combine in your mind for wild lies about how
your favourite celebrity’s car just broke down
they’re stranded and they gotta crash at your house
all the kids that were mean to you in school are broke now
on the side of the road asking big shots for handouts
big shots like you, ’cause look at you, you’re awesome
you’re laying on the beach like an amputee dolphin

“the world just ain’t ready for us yet, that’s it”
says the guy to your left, you would die for that kid
now watch as his eyes get sorta distant and different
and we’re moving in place again
we’re moving in place again
it sure is fun to hate something you’ll love when it’s gone
this time it’s everywhere and everyone at once
from moving in place to moving on
to moving on, to moving on, to moving on

take me to the far side of the beach
before it falls into the ocean
before you notice i’m eroding
i know you don’t wanna be lonely
i know you don’t wanna be lonely
i know ’cause i would feel the same thing
tomorrow i’m gonna be eighteen
right now it takes everything in me
to kick and claw and fight against that instinct
to lay there and just sink into the same beach
and get so high that i feel my brain shrink
justify it’s not a massive time waste
close my eyes, deny i see you sinking
lay there right beside you in the imprint
i left there that night in 2019
lean into the tide and let it take me
eyes get wide and all excited
like fifteen, discovered nitrous
spending every night on empty beaches
with the same four kids
