[Verse 1]
Face down on the bathroom tile
Phone lit up with a thousand miles
Of words we threw like broken glass
Still stuck in my skin
You said
"We’re fine
" with your hands in fists
Every kiss felt like a hit then miss
Now every room still sounds like you
When everything’s quiet
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep scrolling through a moment frozen
Red eyes
Mascara on your sleeve
How do I bleed out what we chose then
When every cut still wants to breathe?
[Chorus]
I hate that I still need you
I hate that it still hurts
You’re the scar that keeps on tearing
Every time I touch the dirt
I’m screaming
"Are we finished?"
But my lungs won’t let you leave
You’re a ghost beneath the surface
Like glass between my teeth
[Verse 2]
Your hoodie on the backroom chair
Still smells like the fights we shared
I wear it just to feel the weight
Of something that stayed
Friends say that I should just move on
Tear you out like an old love song
But every time I try to breathe
I taste your name
[Pre-Chorus]
I keep running from the words unspoken
Choked up
Knuckles to the door
How do I let go of the hope then
When I’ve never hurt like this before?
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
Did you ever really see me
Past the damage and the doubt?
Or was I just a mirror
You could smash to let it out?
[growled backing]
Tear me open
Let the truth pour out
If this is closure
Why am I still loud?
[crescendo]
Build me from the pieces
If there’s anything to save
Or leave me with the splinters
I’ll crawl out of this grave
[Chorus]
