[Verse 1]
[M]
We left the plates in the sink
like a storm quit halfway through
Your coat on the chair by the door
still smells like the week we knew
[F]
I traced your name on the glass
then wiped it off with my sleeve
You said, "It's getting too hard"
I said, "Hard is not the same as leave"
[Pre-Chorus]
[M]
Don't let it go down
don't let it turn to stone
[F]
We can pull it back
if we get out of our own way
[Chorus]
[Both]
Salvage this
salvage this
Hold on, hold on
salvage this
[M]
Break the frame
[F]
Mend the glass
[Both]
We were fire once
we can last
[M]
Salvage this
[F]
salvage this
[Both]
Say my name
and stay with this
[Verse 2]
[F]
I kept the matchbook tin
full of things we forgot
Movie stubs, a bent old key
and the ring that I almost dropped
[M]
I learned your silence by heart
the way it cracks at the seam
We don't need perfect hands
just two that still believe
[Pre-Chorus]
[F]
Don't let it go down
don't let it turn to stone
[M]
We can pull it back
if we stop pulling alone
[Chorus]
[Both]
Salvage this
salvage this
Hold on, hold on
salvage this
[F]
Break the frame
[M]
Mend the glass
[Both]
We were fire once
we can last
[F]
Salvage this
[M]
salvage this
[Both]
Say my name
and stay with this
[Bridge]
[M]
If I’m the wreckage
then you’re the rope
[F]
If I’m the dark
then you’re the open road
[M]
I’ll bring the splinters
[F]
I’ll bring the thread
[Both]
We can stitch this back
before the words go dead
[Breakdown]
[Both]
Take the blame
take the rain
not the ending
not again
Take my hand
take my side
we are damaged
still alive
[Final Chorus]
[Both]
Salvage this
salvage this
Hold on, hold on
salvage this
[M]
Break the frame
[F]
Mend the glass
[Both]
We were fire once
we can last
[M]
Salvage this
[F]
salvage this
[Both]
Say my name
and stay with this
[Outro]
[M]
Stay with this
[F]
stay with this
[Both]
Salvage this
salvage this
