[Verse 1]
I opened my chest let my heart spill out
Told you the pieces I can’t live without
You stared at the floor like words don’t mean a thing
Now the silence is louder than our old fights
I’m a shadow of me under dim streetlights
Guess I’ve learned how to freeze when it starts to sting
[Chorus]
Try loving this version of me
A colder heart
A locked-up key
The fire’s gone
The ice won’t melt
You’re staring at someone else
But try loving this version of me
[Verse 2]
The clock doesn’t tick it just sighs at the wall
You don’t even notice when I start to fall
But I’m not begging for hands to catch me now
I’ve traded my tears for a stone-hard gaze
You can’t thaw the frost with your tired cliches
It’s too late to ask me when or how
[Chorus]
Try loving this version of me
A colder heart
A locked-up key
The fire’s gone
The ice won’t melt
You’re staring at someone else
But try loving this version of me
