[Verse 1]
You talk like it’s nothing
Keys on the table
Coat on the chair
Heart in the doorway
Unable
Half-light in the kitchen
Your coffee gone cold
You say that you’re “fine”
But the silence is bold
[Chorus]
Love’s too hard to hold
Burns right through my hands when it gets this close
Every time we touch
It’s a tight control
Clench my fists around you till I let you go
Love’s too hard to hold
[Verse 2]
You laugh
Then you freeze up
Eyes to the floorboards
Tracing the same line
Like you’ve been here before
You say you’re not leaving
You just “need some space”
I hear it as distance
Printed on your face
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
All these almost-words
Hanging in the air
All these almost-tears
That you never share
If I loosen my grip
Do you slip away?
If I hold too tight
Do you break
Do you break?
[Chorus]
