"Moving Parts" lyrics

"Moving Parts"

I've been lonely since you left me
Stranded in the backseat
Of a car I can't drive
Moving parts take up space in my beating heart
As I'm breathless
My breath went as you left

Now I feel you in my walls and
If the ceilings of my room could talk
They'd say run back to you
Three whole years and two last calls
I've moved twice more and you're still in my walls
They say run back to you
Do they know I've tried to?
And that it's just an idea of you

All the late nights
Just the moments that fit us right
Did you treat her well tonight?
It's like when my parents fight
My mother stopped letting my partners in
She treated you as a son
She don't do that to anyone
You weren't just anyone

Now I feel you in my walls and
If the ceilings of my room could talk
They'd say run back to you
Three whole years and two last calls
I've moved twice more and you're still in my walls
They say run back to you
Do they know I've tried to?
And that it's just an idea of you

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Getting used to cold sheets, the putting on weight
Mangling in stranger's bodies, the drinks past late
The healing, the reel as therapy, and the prozac
The friends I've loved and lost, the memories I forgot
The voice notes you've left, lips I've kissed you've not met
And the world outside ours and all the moving parts
And all the moving parts

Now I feel you in my walls and
If the ceilings of my room could talk
They'd say run back to you
Do they know I've tried to?
But that it's just an idea of you
It's just an idea of you
