[Verse 1]
You were counting cracks in the concrete
One more step from leaving the frame
I just asked if you were freezing
Offered my coat
Never asked for your shame
You laughed like glass on the pavement
Said
"You don't want this story
Kid"
But I stayed there on that railing
Hands in my pockets
Heart in my ribs
[Chorus]
How did I save you?
I was just broken too
You were done with the ending
I was stuck on the truth
We were both at the edge
Of a world coming unglued
How did I save you
Or did you save me too? (save me too)
[Verse 2]
You said
"I swore tonight was my curtain"
Voice so small I almost missed
All the weight behind your breathing
All the storms inside your fist
Now it's coffee on the counter at sunrise
Dishes stacked and plants half-dead
Your socks inside my hoodie
Your shampoo in my bed
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
Now it's names on a lease
Scars that we trace
Your old note in a shoebox
My old pills in the waste
[low vocal register] I still see that ledge when you tremble
You still see that boy looking scared
We don't talk about rescue
We just say "I'm glad you're here"
[Chorus]
