[Verse 1]
Phone face down
But it still feels loud
Read receipts
Burning through the couch
You said "fine"
I can hear the fight
In one small word
You don't type right
Dark room glow
From a door that's closed
I pace lines
In the same old clothes
Half eaten takeout
On the nightstand
I keep scrolling
Past the part where we began
[Pre-Chorus]
How did we get so careful
Walking around each sentence
Used to talk until sunrise
Now we time our exits
If loving you is heavy
Why do I feel so weightless
Like I'm drifting through the ceiling
While you’re bracing for the wreckage
[Chorus]
I'm a halfway ghost in your bed tonight
Laying right here, but I'm out of sight
You can hold my body, not my mind
Can you feel me fading, fading
Say you still want all of my wrong and right
I don't wanna watch us apologize
Tell me that it’s us against the night
Before I’m gone, I’m gone, I’m gone
[Verse 2]
Your side cold
But you’re right there, breathing
You say "work's wild"
I know that you're leaving
Eyes on the ceiling fan
Spinning like excuses
Every time we get close
We both call it useless
You wear my hoodie
Like a borrowed promise
I wear your silence
Like it's all I wanted
We talk plans
Just to change the topic
Say "we're fine"
Then we drop it
[Pre-Chorus]
How did we get so careful
Tiptoeing round our memories
Used to shout our secrets
Now we whisper through the distance
If loving you is heavy
Why am I scared to feel this
Like one more honest sentence
Might finally make it real and
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register] If I break first
Would you break too
Or would you watch me fall
Just to save you
[falsetto] If I say "stay"
And really mean "stay"
Would you pull me closer
Or slowly look away
[Chorus]
