Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You said “I’ll call you back”
My heart heard “you’re gone for good”
Ten seconds and I’m packin’ bags
Like you’re leavin’ the neighborhood
Laughin’ at a joke
Then I’m slammin’ every door
How can I be so sure you’ll leave
When you ain’t even crossed the porch?
[Chorus]
I’m a porch light, always flickering
On and off, you never know
One touch and I’m burnin’ up
Next breath I’m ice and snow
Hold me close, I swear I’m fine
Then I’m beggin’ you to run
I’m a storm inside a shot glass, baby
Spillin’ over on everyone
[Verse 2]
Some days I feel like someone
Some days I’m just your shade
Staring at my own reflection
Like it’s somebody you made
Runnin’ red lights in my pickup
Just to feel a little pain
Tattooin’ over old scars
So I don’t have to say their names
[Chorus]
I’m a porch light, always flickering
On and off, you never know
One touch and I’m burnin’ up
Next breath I’m ice and snow
Hold me close, I swear I’m fine
Then I’m beggin’ you to run
I’m a storm inside a shot glass, baby
Spillin’ over on everyone
[Bridge]
I push you out, then pull you in (come back)
Say I’m done, then start again
Kiss your lips, then curse your name
I swear it’s love wrapped up in flame
If you stay when I come undone
Promise me you’re gonna run
For help, for hope, for both of us
When I can’t trust my own hands, my own trust
[Chorus]
I’m a porch light, always flickering
On and off, you never know
One touch and I’m burnin’ up
Next breath I’m ice and snow
If I say I’m better gone
Please don’t treat those words as true
’Cause this broken, busted, busted heart
Still keeps beatin’ up for you
