Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You said “I’m just runnin’ out
For milk and cigarettes”
Ten minutes felt like ten long years
My heart went straight to wreck
I paced grooves in these floorboards
Checked my phone, then checked again
Already planned your goodbye speech
Before you’d even hit the bend
[Chorus]
Don’t leave me hangin’ on this porch light burnin’
Every tail light feels like you returnin’
I know it’s crazy, but it’s all I’ve learned and
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I swing from beggin’ you to stay, to cussin’
I’m all or nothin’, baby, all or nothin’
I’m scared you’ll run the second that I’m honest
So I hide the worst
[Verse 2]
Some days I’m just a hollow shell
On this secondhand blue couch
Scrolling through our photos
Pickin’ every little flaw out
I say things that cut like barbed wire
Just to see if you still bleed
Then I hate myself for sayin’ ‘em
And I hate what you still see in me
[Chorus]
Don’t leave me hangin’ on this porch light burnin’
Every tail light feels like you returnin’
I know it’s crazy, but it’s all I’ve learned and
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I swing from beggin’ you to stay, to cussin’
I’m all or nothin’, baby, all or nothin’
I’m scared you’ll run the second that I’m honest
So I hide the worst
[Bridge]
Got a bathroom drawer of sorry scars
Little lines I pray you never find (oh Lord)
Try to outrun this storm inside
But it keeps lappin’ at the county line
If I hand you all this busted heart
Will you hold it like it’s somethin’ true?
Or will you leave me with this porch light on
Talkin’ to the dark ‘bout you
[Chorus]
Don’t leave me hangin’ on this porch light burnin’
Every tail light feels like you returnin’
I’m tired of crazy bein’ all I’ve learned and
It hurts, it hurts, it hurts
I swing from beggin’ you to stay, to cussin’
I’m all or nothin’, baby, all or nothin’
If you’re still here when all my walls come crashin’
Maybe I ain’t cursed
[Outro]
Porch light burnin’ in the midnight hush
You take my hand when my hands shake too much
If you can love me in this kind of weather
Maybe I ain’t leavin’ me forever

country, Raw modern country ballad with male vocals; sparse fingerpicked acoustic and upright bass in the verses, brushed snare and swells of pedal steel in the chorus. Intimate, almost spoken delivery on the lines about emptiness; choruses open into a strained, soaring hook with subtle three-part harmonies. Bridge strips back to solo vocal and guitar, then the band returns with a slightly rougher, live-room feel for the final chorus., emotional
