make a move

They’re all asking what’s coming next
saying “make a move, make a move, make a move”
and I’m standing back from the cliff edge
but I can’t take a run at tomorrow
I can’t think beyond today

But still they’re pushing me closer to falling
telling me “make a move, make a move, make a move”
and I just want to scream “I can’t fucking fly,
so just let me climb down in my own time”
but still they’re telling me
“make a move, make a move, make a move
the world won’t wait for you”
