[Verse 1]
I hear your keys in the bowl
Door shuts soft like you’re hiding
You say you’re “fine
” coat still on
Eyes tracing cracks in the drywall
You sink down onto the carpet
Shoes still tied
Shoulders tight
Silence louder than any siren
I can feel you losing light
[Chorus]
I’ll talk you through the pain
Even if you don’t talk back
I’ll sit here naming every shadow
Till they don’t feel so black
You don’t have to say a word
I can read the storm you’re in
I’ll talk you through the pain
Till you feel your heart again
[Verse 2]
I make tea you won’t drink
Leave it steaming by your knee
Scroll through shows
Don’t press play
Let the quiet sit with me
You flinch when my phone vibrates
So I flip it face-down
Gone
Every breath you drag in shaking
I just keep breathing strong
[Chorus]
I’ll talk you through the pain
Even if you don’t talk back
I’ll sit here naming every shadow
Till they don’t feel so black
You don’t have to say a word
I can read the storm you’re in
I’ll talk you through the pain
Till you feel your heart again
[Bridge]
If all your words are heavy
I’ll carry every one
If all you’ve got is “stay
Please”
I swear I won’t run (no, I won’t)
If all you can do is listen
To my voice in the dark
I’ll keep on saying you matter
Till you start believing your heart
[Chorus]
I’ll talk you through the pain
Even if you don’t talk back
I’ll sit here naming every shadow
Till they don’t feel so black
You don’t have to say a word
I can read the storm you’re in
I’ll talk you through the pain
Till you feel your heart again
