[Verse 1]
M: You keep saying that you're "fine"
But you flinch at every phone light
F: You keep laughing at my jokes
But your eyes look past my side
M: I can taste it in the silence
All the words you never write
F: If we're running out of middle ground
Can we stop and fight?
[Chorus]
M+F: Say it (before it's quiet)
Say it (before we hide it)
If you're already halfway out the door
Don't drag shadows on the floor
Say it (before it's quiet)
Say it
Don't you deny it
If forever's gonna be goodnight
Say it before it's quite
[Verse 2]
F: You apologize for "drama"
Then you sleep in your old shirt
M: We keep kissing in the doorway
Like we're bracing for it to hurt
F: I don't want another weekend
Where we smile and then we drift
M: If the map is tearing at the fold
Can we name the rift?
[Chorus]
M+F: Say it (before it's quiet)
Say it (before we hide it)
If you're already halfway out the door
Don't drag shadows on the floor
Say it (before it's quiet)
Say it
Don't you deny it
If forever's gonna be goodnight
Say it before it's quite
[Bridge]
M: Are you scared I'll break?
F: Are you scared I’ll stay?
M: Are we saving face?
F: Or just wasting days?
M+F: I would rather hear it honest
Than pretend we’re still alright
Rip the bandage
Raise your voice
Don't go soft tonight (hey!)
[Chorus]
M+F: Say it (before it's quiet)
Say it (before we hide it)
If you're already halfway out the door
Don't drag shadows on the floor
Say it (before it's quiet)
Say it
Don't you deny it
If forever's gonna be goodnight
Say it before it's quite
(Just say it, say it)
Say it before it's quite
