[Verse 1]
Same street
Same time
You say you’re fine
But your eyes look tired
Slow walk
Cold hands
You pull away
Like you already planned
[Pre-Chorus]
Every word feels like it might break us
Every touch trembles on the edge
I’m afraid of what your silence says
Afraid of what it doesn’t
[Chorus]
Are we scared to be lonely
Or scared to be close?
Holding on to the ghost of a hope
That we almost chose
If I fall
Will you hold me
Or let the dark expose
Every crack in the pose
Are we scared to be lonely
Or scared to be close?
[Verse 2]
Dim room
Blue glow
Your shadow moves
But your heartbeat’s slow
Half truths
Half light
You kiss my mouth
Then you kill the night
[Pre-Chorus]
All your walls wrapped around your heartbeat
All my doubts circling my chest
I’m afraid that if I say “don’t leave”
You’ll finally confess it
[Chorus]
Are we scared to be lonely
Or scared to be close?
Holding on to the ghost of a hope
That we almost chose
If I fall
Will you hold me
Or let the dark expose
Every crack in the pose
Are we scared to be lonely
Or scared to be close?
[Bridge]
Tell me the truth in a whisper (oh)
Say my name like you mean it now
If this is the last night
Teach me how to live it out
[Chorus]
Are we scared to be lonely
Or scared to be close?
Reaching out through the space that we built
And we never show
If I fall
Will you hold me
Or let the dark expose
Every crack in the pose
Are we scared to be lonely
Or scared to be close?
