You say my name like a weapon, soft and slow
Pull me close just to let me go
We break, we bend, then fall again
Stuck in this loop we can’t defend
I know your touch, it burns and heals
You’re everything I hate but the only thing real
We fight, then kiss, like crashing stars
Love’s a war, and you’ve got my heart
We rise, we fall, then do it all again
You’re my beginning, and you’re my end
I try to run, but I come back to you
No escape from what we do
I can’t live with or without you
Your love’s a fire I can’t run through
You break me down, then pull me high
I'm lost in your gravity, can't say goodbye
You’re the poison and the cure too
No in-between, just black or blue
We burn like the sun, we freeze like the moon
Can’t live with or without you
[Drop]
“With or— with or without you-ou-ou-ou”
“With or— with or without you-ou-ou-ou”
[Echo vocal chop, massive synth lead, emotional beat drop]
One word from you, and I lose control
We’re dancing on the edge of a broken soul
Tried to walk, but I crawl back in
You're the wound I love under my skin
Late night fights, then sunrise tears
You're the loudest silence in my ears
Even when we tear apart
You still own every piece of my heart
We crash, we heal, we lie, we feel
Spin this wheel, it’s all too real
I don’t know who I am without you
But I can't breathe when I’m around you
I can’t live with or without you
You’re the storm and the sky so blue
You twist me up, then pull me straight
I’m caught in a love I love to hate
You’re the chaos and the calm too
Can’t win, can’t lose, can’t undo
We shine, we fade, we love, we bruise
Can’t live with or without you
[Final Drop]
“With or— with or without you-ou-ou-ou”
(Echoes fading with soft pad)
"No way out, no way through… can’t live with or without you."
