The Benefits of Motion is a jangly REM-esque ode to restlessness and travel which provides a counter-argument to the EP title track’s celebration of staying home.
lyrics
The benefits of motion include
But are not limited to
A healthy perspective on leaving
Things that are best left behind
Ch:
I hope you appreciate
Don’t ever underestimate
All of the benefits
Of motion
The benefits of motion include
A new situation each day
A new way to tackle the problem
Fresh new ideas in decay
And the benefits of motion include
People to show you new things
People who open their hearts
People who pull all your strings
