The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The way she moves
Strikes a never I never knew existed
I nascent form - But something more
I wouldn't stand a chance if I resisted
I feel what I've come up against is all within
Something's gotta give
Do I turn the other cheek or take it on the chin
Something's gotta give
I slip and slide and try to balance on a pin
Something's gotta give
Pushing back against the will to win again
Something's gotta give
The way she looks as me
Turns a secret thought into confession
A painted face - All out the place
She reads my mind by watching my expression
I feel what I've come up against is all within
Something's gotta give
Do I turn the other cheek or take it on the chin
Something's gotta give
I slip and slide and try to balance on a pin
Something's gotta give
Pushing back against the will to sin again
Something's gotta give
It's time to take a bitter pill
Makes me lose my sense of will
A spark of life is landing in the dampness…
The way she moves
Strikes a never I never knew existed
I nascent form - But something more
I wouldn't stand a chance if I resisted
I feel what I've come up against is all within
Something's gotta give
Do I turn the other cheek or take it on the chin
Something's gotta give
I slip and slide and try to balance on a pin
Something's gotta give
Pushing back against the will to sin again
Something's gotta give
