[Verse 1] You say just one more slice, the knife is already clean A velvet little bargain with a sharp edge tucked beneath The crust breaks like a promise, butter running to the plate I taste the whole afternoon and call it fate [Pre-Chorus] A little yes can loosen every lock A little more can swallow up the clock [Chorus] Take what you want, but know what it costs Sweet on the tongue, then the balance is lost Love with your whole heart, spend with your eyes Eat up the moment, but leave room to rise [Verse 2] You text me from the checkout, laughing at the total Two tickets, gold earrings, a future on approval Your hand finds mine beneath the paper bags We buy a bright beginning and forget to check the tags [Pre-Chorus] A little yes can open up the door A little more keeps asking you for more [Chorus] Take what you want, but know what it costs Sweet on the tongue, then the balance is lost Love with your whole heart, spend with your eyes Eat up the moment, but leave room to rise [Breakdown] Put the fork down Let the room breathe Hold me close Keep what we need [Final Chorus] Take what you want, but know what it costs Sweet on the tongue, we can count what we lost Love with your whole heart, spend with your eyes Eat up the moment—leave room to rise [Outro] Leave room to rise
