Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Voices down the hallway
Broken plates and poison words
Mama asking
"Who you talking to?"
Dad pretending that he never heard
I learned how to read faces
Not fairy tales in picture books
Trust was just a loaded word
Hidden in the way they looked
[Pre-Chorus]
So when you say you’re sorry
I hear echoes through the walls
Little me is in the corner
Waiting for the sky to fall
[Chorus]
I’m still looking over my shoulder
Even when your hands are in mine
You swear that it’s over
But I’ve seen this story too many times
You can beg
You can cry
Say you love me
But my guard’s getting colder and colder
Once you cross that line
It’s never the same
I’ll always be
Looking over my shoulder
[Verse 2]
You say
"Baby
I was stupid"
You say
"It was just one mistake"
But I grew up on shattered trust
I know the sound a promise makes when it breaks
You hold me like an answer
I hold you like a maybe
You’re sleeping like you’re peaceful
I’m awake and shaking
Calling myself crazy
[Pre-Chorus]
You say the past is over
But it lives under my skin
Every time you touch your phone
I feel that old fear creeping in
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I don’t wanna live like a detective
Heart on trial
Always so defensive
But every time I start to let you in
I see my parents in the kitchen again
You say "That’s not us
That’s them"
But it’s stitched into my head
I believe you for a second
Then I doubt you all over again
[Chorus]
