Dark Pools

[Verse 1]
A grin too wide
Teeth on point
You lean in close
And the room goes quiet
Eyes shine sharp
Cut right through
I tell myself
I should be running from you
[Pre-Chorus]
But every step I try to take
You pull me back, pull me back again
[Chorus]
I drown in those dark pools
Swallow me whole
I can't say no
When you got my heart in your hold
Drag me down, down, down
Still I won't let go
If you’re all I lose tonight
You’re all I know
[Verse 2]
Late night call
Name on screen
I know that look
I know what it means
Door swings wide
You say my name
I’m halfway gone
Before you finish the phrase
[Pre-Chorus]
I tell my friends I’ve closed that door
Then you just smile and I'm back for more
[Chorus]
I drown in those dark pools
Swallow me whole
I can't say no
When you got my heart in your hold
Drag me down, down, down
Still I won't let go
If you’re all I lose tonight
You’re all I know
[Bridge]
Maybe I'm addicted
To the way you say "stay" (oh)
Even when it breaks me
I can't walk away
[Chorus]
I drown in those dark pools
Swallow me whole
I can't say no
When you got my heart in your hold
Drag me down, down, down
Still I won't let go
If I go under in your arms
Then at least I know
If you’re all I lose tonight
You’re all I know
