He says he loves me, then he slams the line
Says I ruin everything when I try to shine
If I just stopped accusing, we’d be fine
He swears we'd be happy, we’d realign
But I’m just tired of being the fight
Of begging him for one safe night
To give me himself, just once, be near
But he says, “Not ‘til you go one day clear”
[Pre-Chorus]
He says, “You're too much, you're always crying”
But I’m not loud, I’m just done with trying
To be small for his love to stay
To pretend this is okay
[Chorus]
He says I’m crazy, says I’ll lose
That no one else would ever choose
A girl who “twists” and “makes things hard”
Says he’s the best I’ll get, by far
But the more he pulls away
The more I hear another voice say:
“You’re not broken, babe, you’re just brave
To want a love that doesn’t cave.”
[Verse 2]
He holds affection like it’s a prize
If I behave, he might stay the night
He tells me, “One good day, no fights”
As if my pain is just spite
He swears he’d make love again
If I’d just stop bringing up "back then"
But the silence feels like proof
That his love only lives under a truce
[Pre-Chorus]
Still I beg, and still he waits
Says it’s me who locks the gates
But all I want is real and warm
Not just calm before the storm
[Chorus]
He says I’m crazy, says I’ll lose
That no one else would ever choose
A girl who “twists” and “drags things out”
Says he’s the best I’ll ever have, no doubt
But the more he pulls away
The more I hear another voice say:
“You’re not the problem, babe, you’re just brave
To want a love that doesn’t cave.”
[Bridge]
Maybe I’m not asking too much
Maybe it’s him who’s lost touch
‘Cause love that hurts and makes you beg
Isn’t love — it’s just control dressed in regret
[Final Chorus]
So call me crazy, call me too much
But I won’t trade truth for touch
He may be loud, but I’ve found my sound
A quiet strength that won’t back down
‘Cause the best I’ll ever have
Would never make me feel this bad
