[Intro]
You wanted more
Than late night calls
Than screenshots, walls
Than half-truths, half love
[Verse 1]
You wanted more
Than selfies, stories, empty applause
I was out chasing my ego, you were just circling flaws
You kept receipts in your notes, I kept receipts in the mall
You read my silence as peace, I read your peace as a stall
Face lit blue by my name on your phone
You hit send, then erase what you wrote
I hit send, then I ghost, then I post
Same bed, but it feel like we both on the road
[Pre-Chorus]
I hear your voice in the echo of the hallway
Asking me, "Tell me what you stay for"
I see my face in the glass on the subway
Thinking you were right to want more
[Chorus]
You wanted more
Than this half-alive, half-sure, half-open door
You wanted more
Than my almost-love spilled on your bedroom floor
You wanted more
Than a promise I kept breaking every war
You wanted more, you wanted more
And I kept giving you less and less
[Verse 2]
You wanted truth
Not me blaming my past for my present
Not me playing the wounded, then turning aggressive
Every fight, same script, same exit
Every "sorry" just store credit
You curled up, hoodie on, eyes red in the glow
Of the show that we watch just to not say we low
I’m scrolling through strangers, you scrolling through signs
You reading horoscopes, I’m reading between lines
[Bridge]
[low vocal register, vocoder layered]
You wanted hands that hold
I gave you hands that hide
You wanted depth and soul
I stayed on the surface, dry
[autotuned falsetto]
You wanted more than the mask that I wore
More than the jokes and the spin
You wanted doors that would open to warmth
I never let you walk in
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
