Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Jaw clenched

Words splinter on my tongue

You talk in little landmines

I step on every one

Cold eyes

Framed in fluorescent glare

You keep that quiet weapon

Hidden in a stare

[Pre-Chorus]

You twist the blade with a smile

Say it's love all the while

[Chorus]

You put your teeth in the tension

And you call it care

I feel the crack in my center

Every time you’re there

You burn your name in my shelter

Then you play pretend

If this is how you hold me

I would rather end

[Verse 2]

Short fuse

You light it

Then deny

Gas poured on the carpet

You swear it’s just my mind

Thin rope

Threaded through both our throats

You tug like it’s a game

I choke on every joke

[Pre-Chorus]

You twist the blade with a smile

Say it's love all the while

[Chorus]

You put your teeth in the tension

And you call it care

I feel the crack in my center

Every time you’re there

You burn your name in my shelter

Then you play pretend

If this is how you hold me

I would rather end

[Bridge]

(hey!)

Pull the pin

Let it blow

I won’t bend

I won’t fold

Every scar

Every lie

I give back

What is mine

[Breakdown]

Say my pain is overdone (overdone)

Say I’m just another storm

But you built this flood inside me

Now I’m cutting from the cord (cutting from the cord)

[Chorus]

You put your teeth in the tension

And you call it care

I feel the crack in my center

Every time you’re there

You burned your name in my shelter

Now this is the end

If this is how you hold me

I won’t break again
