“Take It Or Leave It” is track two off of Alessi Rose’s EP, “voyeur.” Written by Rose herself, the song follows reoccurring themes of being able to replicate exactly what her lover wants.
[Intro]
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
[Verse 1]
I wouldn't blame you if after this evening
We nod in the hallways, we're no longer speaking
And all of a sudden I'm sick to my stomach, oh (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
My inhibitions are dead in the water
Just try to remember I'm somebody's daughter
Brace for the impact, there's no going back now
[Pre-Chorus]
I'm breaking down, it's a shot in the dark
Don't think too hard, it's a walk in the park
Can I tell you something? Here goes nothing
[Chorus]
I feel it when we touch, oh, God
And, baby, I can make a scene if that's what you want
I'll give you brutal honesty
You're stuck in my teeth, it's disgusting, I need it out (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
It's more than just a crush, it's all consuming
I'm a lunatic, so don't make me blush
I'm over all the subtlety, I love you, I mean it
Take it or leave it now (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
[Verse 2]
I've noticed you're perfect, I feel like a voyeur
Watching you breathe, wish I could do it for you
I know it's weird, but I think you're the one for me
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, and I've been breaking down fragments of you
I try to sleep, but you always intrude
Gotta tell you something, here goes nothing
[Chorus]
How I feel it when we touch, oh, God
And, baby, I can make a scene if that's what you want
I'll give you brutal honesty
You're stuck in my teeth, it's disgusting, I need it out (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
It's more than just a crush, it's all consuming
I'm a lunatic, so don't make me blush
I'm over all the subtlety, I love you, I mean it
Take it or leave it now (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
[Bridge]
And I need the tip of your tongue if you're willing
Be the time of your life that you're killing
Baby, really think you need me (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
And if I, if I got it wrong, then I'm sorry
If it's all in my head, you don't want me
Then it's on me, yeah, it's on me (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
[Chorus]
How I feel it when we touch, oh, God
And, baby, I won't make a scene if that's what you want
I'll give you brutal honesty
You're stuck in my teeth, it's disgusting, I need it out
Oh, I feel it when we touch, oh, God
And, baby, I can make a scene if that's what you want
I'll give you brutal honesty
You're stuck in my teeth, it's disgusting, I need it out (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
It's more than just a crush, it's all consuming
I'm a lunatic, so don't make me blush
I'm over all the subtlety, I love you, I mean it
Take it or leave it now (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
[Outro]
Take it or leave it (Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah)
