[Verse 1] [arpeggio and bass enter together] [voice: female, sung, full melody] I used to catch it by the smell, the fault that only showed at lunch, I'd take it back apart by hand and know which screw had moved too much. [Chorus] Accept all. It asks so nicely — I accept all. I had a reason to say no once, I can't recall. [Verse 2] [string machine drops out] [voice: female, half-spoken, melody flattening] Somebody asked me how it works. I told them: it works. They asked me where it breaks. I said: we'll see. My hands still know the shortcut for a thing I never use, like the number of a flat we moved out of in June. [Chorus] [voice: female, half-sung, fewer notes] Accept all. It asks so nicely — I accept all. I had a reason to say no once, I can't recall. [Verse 3] [drums drop to rimshot only] [voice: female, monotone, one note, spoken] Yes to the change. Yes to the change after it. Yes to the thing that fixed the thing. I wanted one question I could answer. It didn't ask. [Outro] [voice: female, flat, barely there] Yes. [arpeggio stops mid-note] [hard cut to silence]
