[Verse 1 - 8 bars — restrained, steady]
[8] You stay up late just to hear me breathe
[8] I see your name light up next to me
[8] You swear you’re fine, but your hands still shake
[8] When I don’t say what you wanna hear
[8] You lean too close when I pull away
[8] Like I might vanish if I don’t stay
[8] You don’t ask me to stay tonight
[8] You already made it feel that way
⸻
[Pre-Chorus - 4 bars — lift, no rush]
[8] I don’t stop you when you fall apart
[8] I don’t push when you give your heart
[8] I let it happen, I let it hurt
[8] I let you love me till it got worse
⸻
[Chorus - EAR-WORM CORE]
[6] Don’t give me everything
[5] I don’t need your sleep
[8] You say my name like it’s holy
[6] I let you bleed for me
[6] Don’t give me everything
[6] I like it too much, I’ll admit
[8] You love me louder than I do
[5] And I don’t stop it
[repeat last line softly]
And I don’t stop it
⸻
[Verse 2 - 8 bars — same rhythm as Verse 1]
[8] You trace my shadow across the room
[8] Like I’m the only thing you choose
[8] You tell yourself it’s something real
[8] I never say it is, or how much I feel
[8] I wear your attention like a dress
[8] Fits too good, I must confess
[8] I know I’m playing with the truth
[8] But you keep choosing me, you do
⸻
[Pre-Chorus - repeat — identical rhythm]
[8] I don’t stop you when you cross the line
[8] I don’t ask if you’re doing fine
[8] I let it happen, I let it stay
[8] I let you give yourself away
⸻
[Chorus - repeat]
[6] Don’t give me everything
[5] I don’t need your sleep
[8] You say my name like it’s holy
[6] I let you bleed for me
[6] Don’t give me everything
[6] I like it too much, I’ll admit
[8] You love me louder than I do
[5] And I don’t stop it
[repeat last line softly]
And I don’t stop it
⸻
[Bridge - 4 bars — half-time, whispered]
[8] If you knew me like you think you do
[8] You wouldn’t fall this far so soon
[8] But I look better in your head
[8] Than I ever could in your bed
[beat drop / whispered]
[6] Don’t confuse my silence
[5] For innocence
⸻
[Final Chorus - strip drums, last repeat]
[6] Don’t give me everything
[5] I don’t need your sleep
[8] You’d burn the world just to feel me
[6] I let you bleed for me
[6] Don’t give me everything
[6] I like it honestly
[8] You love me louder than I do
[5] And I don’t stop it
[repeat last line softly]
And I don’t stop it
