[Intro]
I know I said I’m good
I know I said I’m fine
But you can read me better
Than I ever could sometimes
[Verse 1]
I been doing my thing
Got a lot on my plate
Everybody thinks I’m moving on
‘Cause I’m staying out late
I don’t talk about you
I don’t ask where you’ve been
But somehow every road I take
Still brings me back again
I don’t wanna call
I don’t wanna chase
I don’t wanna be the guy
Who can’t give you space
But if you asked me right now
If I wanted you gone
I’d probably lie to your face
Just to prove that I’m strong
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I’m better alone
Maybe I’m better with you
I keep trying to know
But I don’t know what to do
[Chorus]
Don’t let me go
Even if I tell you to
Don’t let me go
Even when I act like I’m through
I got too much pride
To tell you what I need
So if you really know me
Don’t let me leave
Don’t let me go
Don’t let me go
If you’re gonna walk away
Just give me one more second
Before you let me go
[Verse 2]
I hate that you know
Every weakness I hide
You can hear it in my voice
When I’m saying I’m alright
And I know we’re complicated
I know we’re hard to explain
But I’d rather have the truth
Than keep pretending we’re the same
Maybe I’m scared
That if I finally say it
Then everything changes
And I can’t take it back
So I keep it in my chest
And I laugh when you ask
Like I’m not thinking about it
Every time that you pass
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe I’m better alone
Maybe I’m better with you
I keep trying to know
But I don’t know what to do
[Chorus]
Don’t let me go
Even if I tell you to
Don’t let me go
Even when I act like I’m through
I got too much pride
To tell you what I need
So if you really know me
Don’t let me leave
[Melodic Rap]
I been running from the truth
Like the truth gonna run faster
Trying to keep my heart quiet
While my head makes it louder
I don’t need you to save me
I don’t need you to stay
I just hate that when you’re leaving
I got nothing left to say
Maybe we’re a bad idea
Maybe that’s why it feels right
Maybe I only understand you
When it’s two in the morning
And the whole world’s quiet
[Final Chorus]
Don’t let me go
Even if I tell you to
Don’t let me go
Even when I act like I’m through
I got too much pride
To tell you what I need
So if you really know me
Don’t let me leave
Don’t let me go
Don’t let me go
If you’re gonna walk away
Just give me one more second
Before you let me go
[Outro]
I know I said I’m good
I know I said I’m fine
But if you really know me
You know that’s a lie
