[Verse 1]
You left your hoodie on my chair
Smells like a year that never happened
We drew our names in bedroom air
Talked about always, then you vanished
[Pre-Chorus]
You called it fate, I called it trying
You kissed my scars, I called it trust
How did forever turn to silence
Ashes on the tongue of us
[Chorus]
Soul ties never seem to see forever
Only to the end of the night
You pull me in, then you cut that tether
Leave me tangled in the memory tight
We say “this time, we’re gonna heal it better”
Then we bleed in all the same lines
Soul ties never seem to see forever
Just long enough to lose my mind
[Verse 2]
You still know every door code, still
Walk in like Sunday after service
We pray in whispers on my sill
Then sin in ways that make me nervous
[Pre-Chorus]
You say you’ve changed, I start believing
You touch my wrist, I start to shake
How can a feeling feel like freedom
While it’s chaining every move I make
[Chorus]
Soul ties never seem to see forever
Only to the end of the night
You pull me in, then you cut that tether
Leave me tangled in the memory tight
We say “this time, we’re gonna heal it better”
Then we bleed in all the same lines
Soul ties never seem to see forever
Just long enough to lose my mind
[Bridge]
I cut the pictures
You call my phone
You say “I miss you”
I say “go home”
But my hands shake
When I hit decline
You’re out my life
Still in my spine (oh)
[Chorus]
Soul ties never seem to see forever
Only to the end of the night
You pull me back, I forget my center
Lose my name in yours every time
We say “this time, we’re gonna heal it better”
But we’re walking past the same signs
Soul ties never seem to see forever
So why you living in this heart of mine (yeah)
Soul ties never seem to see forever
But I still let you cross that line
