[Verse 1] I read on the internet, you kiss someone The next six months, their DNA stays in your system It's a matter of time 'til it's missing And I heard every seven years That new cells grow, replace the old I wish I could stop it completely Then maybe your touch wouldn't leave me
[Pre-Chorus] If only movin' on were that scientific I'd step into new skin, forget you existed
[Chorus] But I wanna hold onto The parts of me that have you on 'em I'm physiologically doomed Can't stop the clock so I just watch it Maybe if I don't look down, won't see my nails growing out If I don't look in the mirror, won't see my roots going brown Don't wanna turn into someone new Don't want a body that doesn't know you
[Verse 2] I'm told heartache's in the brain The push and the pull of chemicals Will slowly fall back into balance But I'm fighting it off 'cause Feeling okay is not worth the cost of
[Pre-Chorus] Slowly erasing the trace of your fingertips So here I am stubbornly digging my feet in
[Chorus] 'Cause I wanna hold onto The parts of me that have you on 'em I'm physiologically doomed Can't stop the clock so I just watch it Maybe if I don't look down, won't see my nails growing out If I don't look in the mirror, won't see my roots going brown Don't wanna turn into someone new Don't want a body that doesn't know you I don't want a body that doesn't know you
[Bridge] It starts with my nails and starts with my roots It starts with the little things adding up 'til I'm someone new Then I'll be painfully aware of every grey hair I'll feel the echo of the years through the ring in my ears And I'll look in the mirror and see someone I don't know All because I could never let you go
[Chorus] I wanna hold onto The parts of me that have you on 'em I'm physiologically doomed Can't stop the clock so I just watch itTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
