Take It Easy (Love Nothing)

First with your hands, then with your mouth
A downpour of sweat, damp cotton clouds
I was a fool, you were my friend
We made it happen

You took off your clothes, slept 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 are spreading out the blankets on beach
That weatherman is a liar
He said, "It would be raining"
But it's clear and blue as far as I can see

Left by the lamp, right next to the bed
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
It's 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
Because 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
She 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 will be no arguments, we will always agree
And I will try and be kind when I ask you to leave
We will 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 will keep you there so you can't bother me
