[Verse 1]
You said
“Tell me every broken thing”
On your bedroom floor
Half-dressed
Half seventeen
Empty pill case
On your thrift-store shelf
You held my shaking hands
Like you could hold my health
You loved
Every crack across my skull
Took my wild-eyed maps
Made the chaos dull
But under that comforter
I still saw shadows crawl
Two of you in the doorway
Laughing down the hall
[Chorus]
Glass hearts
Loud minds
Baby
We’re cracked and shining
Kissing on a fault line
Hope and a slow unwinding
You say “love can stretch”
I say “I split sometimes”
Holding you and him and her
While I’m holding on for my life
[Verse 2]
We drew
Little circles on our arms
“Here’s my favorite fear
Here’s my favorite scar”
You said your heart could open
Like a hallway of doors
I saw faces in the carpet
I heard voices in the drawers
You come home
Smelling like someone else’s smoke
Tell me all their secrets
Like a sweet
Soft joke
I nod
I swear I’m fine
But my thoughts turn sharp and thin
Is this trust
Or is this torture
When three people share this skin?
[Chorus]
Glass hearts
Loud minds
Baby
We’re cracked and shining
Kissing on a fault line
Hope and a slow unwinding
You say “love can stretch”
I say “I split sometimes”
Holding you and him and her
While I’m holding on for my life
[Bridge]
Some days you’re a lighthouse
Some days you’re a crowd
I’m begging my own brain
To turn the volume down (down)
If I call at 3am
Saying “they’re in the room”
Will you climb inside the nightmare
Or just call it a mood?
[Chorus]
Glass hearts
Loud minds
Baby
We’re cracked and shining
Tracing every hairline line
Where the hurt keeps hiding
You say “love can stretch”
I say “I slip sometimes”
If I break
Will you still stay
In the puzzle of my mind?
[Outro]
First love
Open doors
Too much for a fragile head
I whisper
“please believe me”
You kiss my temple instead (oh)
Two hands on my temples
One truth I can’t outrun
I’m not my torment
Darling
But it lives where we love
