[Close to the mic, intimate, whispered]
Would you still love me?
If I grew a cone-shaped, fused eyelid?
with a small central opening?
Would you still love me?
If I had 8 to 10 legs, even from every angle?
With suction to grip you?
Would you still love me?
[Electric Guitar lingers quietly, building into the chorus]
[Chorus]
If I couldn’t move, if I were numb
Would you stay when I come undone?
If my body failed but my heart still ran
Would you hold what I became?
’Cause I’m paralyzed, I can’t break free
You’re the only thing that still moves me
[Verse 2]
Would you still love me?
If my voice came out in frequencies
You could barely recognize?
Would you still love me?
If my skin went cold and colorless
But I still reached out for you?
Would you still love me?
[Chorus]
If I couldn’t move, if I were numb
Would you stay when I come undone?
If my body failed but my heart still ran
Would you hold what I became?
’Cause I’m paralyzed, I can’t break free
You’re the only thing that still moves me
Would you still love me?
[Bridge]
If I let you see the real me
No disguise, no in-between
Would you reach out through the silence
Or disappear from what you’ve seen?
Would you?
Cause would you?
[Guitar solo]
[Guitar and bass guitar call and response]
[Guitar solo comes back]
Would you still love me?
[Chorus]
If I couldn’t move, if I were numb
Would you stay when I come undone?
If my body failed but my heart still ran
Would you hold what I became?
’Cause I’m paralyzed, I can’t break free
You’re the only thing that still moves me
[Slowed]
Would you? [Guitar responses]
Still love me? [Bass guitar responds]
Cause would you?
[Guitar solo fading outro]
