[Intro]
[low vocal register, almost spoken]
I been drawing little maps
On receipts and my own skin
Trying to trace how I got here
And where you disappear, again
[Verse 1]
Threw my phone across the room
Still checked it when it lit
Told my friends that I moved on
Then I scrolled our old pics
You said "heal before you love"
Guess I heard it, never listened
Now I’m staring at these fault lines
Running right through my decisions
I wear your hoodie in July
Tell ‘em I just like the fit
Truth is when the fabric touches me
I can almost feel your grip
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep rehearsing what I’d say
If you walked back through that door
Every version sounds so brave
Till I’m choking on the thought
[Chorus]
Fault lines
Running through my heart, through my hometown
Every time I try to move, I break down
I keep slipping where your name cuts deep
Where your name cuts deep
Can’t lie
Every time I say I’m done, I rewind
All the quiet little wars in your mind
I still hear you when I try to sleep
When I try to sleep
[Verse 2]
I been talking to your shadow
On the wall above my bed
Giving answers to the questions
You were too afraid to ask
Like why I shut down when you cried
Why I laughed when you were scared
Why I only ever held you
When I knew someone was there
I blame timing, you blame pride
We were both a little right
I was busy trying to fix you
So I didn’t fix my life
[Pre-Chorus]
And I keep editing the past
Like a picture on my phone
Cropping out the parts I crashed
So it hurts, but not as cold
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[half-sung, strained]
If you called me right now
Would I answer or just stare?
Would I drive to where you are
Or pretend I didn’t care?
All these maybes in my mouth
All these memories in my veins
You’re the calm inside my chaos
You’re the crack inside my frame
[Chorus]
