Prompt / Lyrics
Verse 1 You say it like it’s simple, Like it’s already true. Like love is just a sentence I’m supposed to take from you. But your silence has a pattern, And your tone can turn so cold. You hand me something fragile Then blame me when it folds. Pre-Chorus If love is what you’re offering, Why does it feel like war? Chorus How can you tell me that you love me While you’re pushing me away? How can you say forever But disappear the next day? If love is meant to hold me, Why do I brace for the fall? How can you tell me that you love me When it doesn’t feel like love at all? Verse 2 You measure every weakness, Keep a ledger in your head. Every time I try to speak, You rewrite what I just said. You say I’m too sensitive, Too reactive, too intense. But I’m just trying to stand inside The truth of what you meant. Pre-Chorus If love is safe and steady, Why am I walking on glass? Chorus How can you tell me that you love me While you’re sharpening your words? How can you say you hear me When I’m never really heard? If love is meant to see me, Why do I feel so small? How can you tell me that you love me When it doesn’t feel like love at all? Bridge Maybe love is different In the story that you tell. Maybe mine is quieter— Not something I have to sell. If I have to shrink to keep it, That’s not who I can be. Love shouldn’t feel like proving Why I’m worthy just to breathe. Final Chorus So how can you tell me that you love me If I’m afraid of what you’ll say? How can you promise shelter When I’m standing in your rain? If love is meant to lift me, Why am I crawling down the hall? You can tell me that you love me— But it doesn’t feel like love at all
