Mutual Core

I shuffle around The tectonic plates In my chest You know I gave it all Trying to match our continents To change seasonal shift To form a mutual core As fast as your fingernail grows The Atlantic ridge drifts To counteract distance You know I gave it all Can you hear the effort Of the magnetic strife? Shuffling of columns To form a mutual core This eruption undoes stagnation You didn't know that I had it in me Withheld your love, an unspent capsule I didn't know you had it in you You hid the key to our continuity I didn't know you had it in you This eruption undoes stagnation You didn't know, you didn't know What you resist persists Nuance makes heat To counteract distance I know you gave it all Offered me harmony If things were done your way My Eurasian plate subsumed Forming a mutual core This eruption undoes stagnation You didn't know I had it in me Withheld your love, an unspent capsule I didn't know you had it in you This eruption undoes stagnation You didn't know I had it in me This eruption undoes stagnation You didn't know, you didn't know
