Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Why do you keep taking
Till I’ve got nothing left to give
You scrape the bottom
Of every quiet place I live
You take my heart
You take my sleep
Pick every lock
To secrets I meant to keep
[Pre-Chorus]
You call it love
I call it losing
You call it fate
I call it choosing
To drain me dry
Drop by drop
[Chorus]
Why do you keep taking
Till I’m a hollow shell
Leaving me empty
Like a vessel that fell
Cracked on the floor
Spilling out slow
You say you need me
Just to feel whole
But you’re carving my name
Into a hole
Why do you keep taking
Till there’s nothing left at all
[Verse 2]
You say you need me
But only when you start to sink
You hold my kindness
Like it’s your private well to drink
Every promise
Just another quiet debt
You call me savior
Then you call someone else instead
[Pre-Chorus]
You call it love
I call it fading
You call it home
I call it trading
Pieces of me
You never owned
[Chorus]
Why do you keep taking
Till I’m a hollow shell
Leaving me empty
Like a vessel that fell
Cracked on the floor
Spilling out slow
You say you need me
Just to feel whole
But you’re carving my name
Into a hole
Why do you keep taking
Till there’s nothing left at all
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m done
Being endless
Maybe I’m done
Being kind
I’m boarding the doors
On my chest now
Guarding the rest
Of my mind (yeah)
[Chorus]
Why did I keep giving
Till I was a hollow shell
Now I’m done staying
Where my spirit isn’t well
I’m off the floor
I’m letting you go
You say you need me
Just to feel whole
But I’m saving my heart
I’m taking control
Why did I keep taking
All the blame for your fall
