Halfway Out Of Heaven

You leave your sneakers

By my front door

Say you’re not staying

Then you drop to the floor

Laughing at movies

You’ve already seen

You call me your “best friend”

But your hand’s on my knee

You say you’re bad at endings

So you never call it “start”

You’re tracing shapes on my shoulder

Like you’re circling my heart (yeah)

Why are we halfway out of heaven

Halfway dressed

Half confession

You say “this is nothing”

But your eyes say “stay”

Sleeping on the edge of something

Kissing like we’re both still running

If this is just a phase

Why does it feel this way

Why are we halfway out of heaven

But all the way in my brain

You wear my T-shirt

For “just one night”

Three weeks later

You still got it on tight

You talk about someone

You “kinda” might see

Then ask if I’m jealous

With your lips on my cheek (oh)

You’re drawing lines in the dark

Then you cross them in my bed

Every “we should stop”

Gets swallowed when you pull me in instead

Why are we halfway out of heaven

Halfway dressed

Half confession

You say “this is nothing”

But your eyes say “stay”

Sleeping on the edge of something

Kissing like we’re both still running

If this is just a phase

Why does it feel this way

Why are we halfway out of heaven

But all the way in my brain

Tell me

Is there someone

You let this close

Do they get this version

The one I know

If I’m just your secret

Why do I feel seen

Are we gonna wake up

Or keep calling this a dream (woah)

Why are we halfway out of heaven

Halfway dressed

Half confession

You say “this is nothing”

But your eyes say “stay”

Sleeping on the edge of something

Kissing like we’re both still running

If this is just a phase

Why does it feel this way

Why are we halfway out of heaven

But all the way in my brain
