[Verse 1]
Slow drip
Of your silence on my skin
You turn your back
I sink
In the middle of our bed
You breathe
Like I’m further than the moon
Every “fine” you say’s a wound
I pretend I can’t feel it
[Chorus]
I’m fighting through the rip current
Pulled under every time I reach for you
You say it doesn’t mean nothing
But it’s killing every tender part of truth
If love was ever certain
Why am I drowning just to breathe around you?
I’m fighting through the rip current
Fighting through
Fighting through
[Verse 2]
Cold hands
You don’t even try to hide
Scrollin’ while I fall apart
Eyes on anything but mine
You smile
But the corners never move
Every kiss is barely there
Like you’re practicing a goodbye
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
You twist my words
Till I hate myself
Leave me on read
Then say I never helped
You call me “too much”
Then you beg I stay
Got me blaming my heart
For your games
[crescendo]
You don’t get to tear me open
Then say I bleed on you
You don’t get to call it love
When you like me bruised
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
[aggressive delivery]
You drain my heart dry
Call it “working on us”
Drag my name through your friends
Then you ask for my trust
I was begging for a lifeline
You were watching me choke
Now you’re mad I finally woke up
I’m done being soft for your damage
Done letting you play the victim
All this weight you put on my chest
I’m throwing it back
I won’t lift it
[Chorus]
