Lyrics
So her fingers ran away with themselves
Her actions took control without conscious thought.
'Till everything was documented
Every detail was recorded or captured.
Our mind it was reaching out
Their collective consciousness extended beyond their physical selves.
To put into words what their bodies had done
Attempting to articulate the experiences their bodies shared.
They lie together, oh
They are in an intimate connection.
Oil on water
Metaphorically described as oil on water, signifying a complex and delicate relationship.
And they lie upon her, oh
Their connection involves her being the subject.
Someone's daughter
Highlighting her identity as a person with significance.
It's a catalogue of modern mistakes
An accumulation of contemporary errors and misjudgments.
Her words and legs wrapped around each man
Her involvement with multiple men, both verbally and physically.
Leaving stories like digital crumbs
Leaving traces of her experiences in the digital realm.
As she turns these nights into literature
Transforming her experiences into literary works during the night.
They lie together, oh
Continuation of their intimate connection.
Oil on water
Reiteration of their complex relationship, comparing it to oil on water.
And they lie upon her, oh
Emphasizing her role in the connection.
Someone's daughter
Underscoring her identity as someone's daughter.
When they leave she sets about writing down
After their encounters, she documents various awkward interactions around town.
Awkward body games all over town
Describing the nature of her recorded experiences.
Warm affection runs through every word
Her writing conveys warmth and affection.
We're screens away but we're laughing with her
Despite physical distance, the audience shares laughter with her through screens.
They lie together, oh
Reiteration of their intimate connection.
Oil on water
Reaffirming the complexity of their relationship as oil on water.
Oh they lie upon her, oh
Highlighting her role in the connection.
Someone's daughter
Emphasizing her identity as someone's daughter.
They lie upon her, oh
Continuation of their intimate connection.
Oil on water
Reiteration of the complex relationship, symbolized by oil on water.
