Leksi Harris - Rabbit & Snail Lyrics

This isn't a love that feels unrequited
But the sea saw dips at my feet, and so I sit beside it
You don't own me, but I've grown some seeds in your garden
And if you're the ocean, I'd swim out and drown in you often

I cover my eyes so they don't scare you
Cause they say the things that I've been scared to
And I'm afraid you don't look at me the same
I'm afraid your eyes won't reciprocate
So I stay in a driver's lane

We're a tale: "Rabbit and Snail", seeking some balance
I move fast, unsure that I'll last
Guess that makes me "the rabbit"

You take your time, enjoying the ride, weighing the scales
Feeding on dead flowers and leaves, maybe that's me
Guess that makes you "the snail"

I cover my eyes so they don't scare you
Cause they say the things that I'm too scared to
And I'm afraid you don't look at me the same
I'm afraid your eyes don't reciprocate
So I stay in a driver's lane

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Tell me what am I to do
Cause I can't keep losing you
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I've redefined what love is
Oh, I've redefined what I need
Oh, I've written it in cursive
So it comes to me high speed

And some may say it's enthralling, enchanting, delusional
Everything
But I wanna taste your sound
I wanna be spellbound

By something so unusual
Like your eyebrows, your cuticles, your nose
I don't know

I cover my eyes so they don't scare you
Cause they say the things that I've been scared to
And I'm afraid you don't look at me the same way
Cause I'm afraid your eyes don't reciprocate
So I stay in a driver's lane
