V4.5-ALL

[Verse 1] Arturia’s fingers Catch threads in the air Your laugh Your flinch Every sideways stare She draws the bow And your mask comes loose You call it truth She calls it use [Chorus] You’re just a movement in Arturia’s cadenza A rising line she bends until you break She doesn’t listen She rewrites your confession Every shaken word Another note to take You think it’s love She thinks it’s better than love Proof that you’re hers For as long as she plays [Verse 2] She names you cello When you ache and hum Violin When You come undone Trumpet When you Beg to be heard She tunes your pride With a single word [Chorus] You’re just a movement in Arturia’s cadenza A rising line she bends until you break She doesn’t listen She rewrites your confession Every shaken word Another note to take You think it’s fate She thinks it’s better than fate Proof that you’re hers For as long as she plays [Bridge] Only her brother Silent in the hall Eyes like marble Back to the wall She drags the bow harder Draws blood from the strings But his face stays empty He feels nothing [Chorus] We’re just a movement in Arturia’s cadenza She pulls us open Tender Torn Displayed She loves the puzzle that refuses her entrance The single soul that cannot be remade We call it fear She calls it something like faith Proof she’s not god Just a girl who plays
