Dark Pools

[Verse 1]
A grin too wide
Teeth on point
Your fingers trace
Every old joint
Eyes shine sharp
Cut through my guard
You pull the thread
Of my stitched-up heart
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't say no
Tongue tied, pulled close
Breath caught in your throat
I'm already gone
[Chorus]
As you drag me down
I drown in those dark pools
Swallow me whole
Break every rule
Don't let me go
You're all I know
If loving you burns
I want the smoke
[Verse 2]
Your laugh hits hard
Sweet and cruel
You bend the truth
Make it sound like truth
One crooked smile
And I'm on my knees
You say my name
Like a quick disease
[Pre-Chorus]
I can't look away
Hooked on the fall
Say I'm still free
While you take it all
[Chorus]
As you drag me down
I drown in those dark pools
Swallow me whole
Break every rule
Don't let me go
You're all I know
If loving you burns
I want the smoke
[Bridge]
Tie my hands
In your promises
Bleed me dry
On your lips again (oh)
Every red flag
Looks like roses now
I hear the warning
But I still bow
[Chorus]
As you drag me down
I drown in those dark pools
Swallow me whole
Break every rule
Don't let me go
You're all I know
If loving you burns
I want the smoke
Drag me down deep
That's where I glow
