Move
Boyd Bennett & The Rockets Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Just witnessed the apocalypse come through on an iMessage
L.O.L who would've thought
All that rain falling on your phone screen
God dammit this is not a Samsung
You can't compare me to Noah
I can't build a relationship so everybody about to drown
It's all fun and games until a heart get broken
Soul drag itself down to hell, well

How do we move on?
How do we grow ?
Whoa
Everything you did
Swallowed me whole
Whoa
How do we move on?
How do we grow ?
Whoa
Everything you did
Swallowed me whole

I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch

Ooo I hate you
They say that's a powerful word well i'm thankful
Ooo I hate you
They say that's a powerful word well i'm thankful
I'm thankful

Tears on the road it'll all be over soon
Tears on the road it'll all be over soon
Tears on the road it'll all be over soon
Tears on the road it'll all be over soon

Driving down the highway passing all the signs
Flying out the window end of the night
Driving the highway passing every sign
Collision course flying out the window
Hell of a night

I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch

How do we move on?
How do we grow ?
Whoa
Everything you did
Swallowed me whole
Whoa
How do we move on?
How do we grow ?
Whoa
Everything you did
Swallowed me whole

I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch
I want to forget that I was ever your bitch

Ooo I hate you
They say that's a powerful word well i'm thankful
Ooo I hate you




They say that's a powerful word well i'm thankful
I'm thankful
