The Democracy Of Small Things

The Blow

I spoke to all my molecules and

They were divided

On if you were invited

Love undecided



I told them,

Now's the time you've got to

make your choice.

No more can avoid

Lift up one solid voice.



They told me,

We just can't say yet.

There's a lot of 'yes's.

But also plenty 'no's

And we work by consesus.



I said,

Pull in the stragglers

Try to wear down their defenses

'Cause it's getting humiliating

Out here on the fence.



I spoke to all my molecules

Hey guys?

Did you see those eyes?



I know I felt you all there with me

Swelling that one kiss

Think of all the waves of holding back

we're gonna miss.

What's the problem?

Why've we held back for so long?



Ready to move on?
