Verse 1]
You said it soft like a secret
Breathin’ me in like a habit
I saw the truth in your silence
But I kept fallin’ like magic
Your touch was a promise
Laced in perfume and panic
Now I’m alone with the echoes
Of all the love we imagined
[Pre-Chorus]
We were fire under water
Tryna burn through the cold
I should’ve known better
But your eyes had control
[Chorus]
Velvet lies on your skin
Told me love, pulled me in
Every kiss was a sin
I’d commit all again
Even if it kills me slow
I still need you to know
You were beautiful…
Even when you broke me low
[Verse 2]
Still hear your voice in the static
Late calls, moonlight was tragic
We danced on a line that was breaking
But I still called it magic
And I’m not who I was back then
But you got a key to my head
Yeah, I could burn every memory
But you’d still live in my bed
[Pre-Chorus]
We were stars with no sky
Love with no alibi
But it felt like home
Every time you said goodbye
[Chorus]
Velvet lies on your skin
Told me love, pulled me in
Every kiss was a sin
I’d commit all again
Even if it kills me slow
I still need you to know
You were beautiful…
Even when you broke me low
[Bridge – Falsetto]
Say it was real, even if you don’t feel
Lie to me slow like you used to
Break me apart in the dark
I still want to lose to you
[Final Chorus – Stripped + Full Layered]
Velvet lies on your skin (on your skin)
Told me love, pulled me in
I would drown just to swim
In the hurt you were in
Even if it kills me slow (slow…)
Still addicted to your glow
You were beautiful…
Even when you broke me low
