[Verse 1]
Billy, I still see your chair
By the cracked blue wall
Your keys on the hook
Like you never left at all
Heather, you knew my name
Like a blade knows skin
Every time I ran
I came back in
[Pre-Chorus]
I called it love
I called it fate
But my hands shook
At the garden gate
You pulled me close
Then you let me burn
I kept the bruise
And I kept the turn
[Chorus]
Heather, pull me under
Heather, pull me close
I hate the way I need you
I need you most
Heather, pull me under
Tie me to your shore
I say I’m free from this
Then I come back for more
[Verse 2]
Billy in the mirror
With his mouth gone dry
Counting all the lies
That passed like flies
Your perfume in the sheets
Your silence in the hall
I heard my own name
In the brick wall
[Pre-Chorus]
I wore your fear
Like a borrowed coat
I swallowed my voice
Just to keep afloat
You gave me rain
Then sold me drought
I learned your touch
By the shape of doubt
[Chorus]
Heather, pull me under
Heather, pull me close
I hate the way I need you
I need you most
Heather, pull me under
Tie me to your shore
I say I’m free from this
Then I come back for more
[Bridge]
Maybe this isn’t mercy
Maybe this is war
Two bruised hearts
At the same old door
I’m naming it now
So it can break
But your ghost still knows
The shape I make
[Chorus]
Heather, pull me under
Heather, pull me close
I hate the way I need you
I need you most
Heather, pull me under
Tie me to your shore
I say I’m free from this
Then I come back for more
