[Verse 1]
You only call when your sky splits open
My name glows red on your shaking phone
I’m the door you lean on
Soaking
Then I watch you leave once the storm is gone
You wear my shirt when your world goes silent
But it’s turned inside out by the morning light
You trace my scars
Talk like you might stay
Then you grab your keys
Disappear in spite
[Chorus]
You only love me in a crisis
Bleeding on my couch at 3 a.m
Saying “you’re the only one who gets me”
Till the sun comes up
You forget me again
I’m not your shelter you can hide in
Till your weather clears and you move on
I’m done being holy when you’re faithless
Only loved in messes
Hated when they’re gone
[Verse 2]
Your tears still shine on my old T-shirt
Coffee ring ghosts on my bedside stand
You said
“Don’t you dare ever leave me”
While you typed his name with your other hand
I learned the script
Every act
Every ending
You swear you’re different
You swear you’ve changed
But every time the calm comes creeping
I feel you loading up the blame
[Chorus]
You only love me in a crisis
Bleeding on my couch at 3 a.m
Saying “you’re the only one who gets me”
Till the sun comes up
You forget me again
I’m not your shelter you can hide in
Till your weather clears and you move on
I’m done being holy when you’re faithless
Only loved in messes
Hated when they’re gone
[Bridge]
What if I don’t pick up this time? (this time)
Let your fear find somebody new
Would you miss me
Or miss the mirror
That made the wreck look good on you?
[Chorus]
You only love me in a crisis
Bleeding on my couch at 3 a.m
Saying “you’re the only one who gets me”
Then you wipe your eyes
Start lying again
I’m not your shelter you can hide in
When your perfect world feels wrong
I’d rather be lonely than your lifeline
Only loved in crashes
Lost when they’re gone
