[Verse 1]
She pull up with that tired smile
Same hoodie, same cracked phone
You laugh, say you're "doing fine"
But your eyes keep lookin' down
You talk about his weekend plans
Like a highlight reel in your head
But every story got the same twist
Starts with flowers, ends in dread
You say, "He just been stressed
I'm the only one who gets him"
I'm countin' every bruise you hide
You keep countin' all the texts sent
I hold my tongue till it bleeds
Bite back what I wanna scream
'Cause every time you say his name
It cuts straight through my dream (yeah)
[Chorus]
When I look at you, my whole world lights up
When you look at me, you still see him
I got arms wide open, heart all cut up
You keep runnin' back to where you been
You say you love him, even while you break
You say you love him, tears on your face
I'm right here, but I'm stuck in the frame
Watchin' you whisper the same old name (same old name)
[Verse 2]
You call late, say you "had a fight"
I hear silence hang in the room
You laugh it off, say it's your fault
Then choke on the word "bruise"
I wanna pull you from that house
Drive till the past falls off the map
But you just need a place to crash
Then you go right back
You say, "He don't mean it though
He's just scared of losin' me"
I wanna say, "He already did"
But you won't choose to see
And I hate the way I love you
Like a secret you won't keep
I hold you while you fall apart
You hold onto his ghost in your sleep (yeah, yeah)
[Chorus]
When I look at you, my whole world lights up
When you look at me, you still see him
I got arms wide open, heart all cut up
You keep runnin' back to where you been
You say you love him, even while you break
You say you love him, tears on your face
I'm right here, but I'm stuck in the frame
Watchin' you whisper the same old name
[Bridge]
How many times you gonna drown
Before you learn you can breathe?
How many lies you gonna swallow
Till you start choking on the cheap?
I’d give you every piece of peace
But you keep choosin' the war
I'm standin' right outside your heart
You keep deadboltin' the door (yeah)
[Chorus]
When I look at you, my whole world lights up
When you look at me, you still see him
I got arms wide open, heart all cut up
You keep runnin' back to where you been
You say you love him, even while you break
You say you love him, tears on your face
I'm right here, but I'm stuck in the frame
Lovin' a girl who still says his name (his name)
