[Verse 1]
I knew your name too soon
Like smoke in my coat
You stood in my doorway
And I lost my throat
Before I knew you, I was still
Hands on the rail, feet on the sill
Now every exit feels too far
You pull me back like a scar
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to turn, I try to go
But my body says no
You got that old pull on me
Like iron to a key
[Chorus]
Magnet on my skin
Pull me back again
So toxic, so drawn
I can't break from you long
Magnet on my skin
Round and round we spin
I want safe, I want space
Still I lean to your face
[Verse 2]
I remember who I was
Before your shadow knew my bed
Before your words got under
And lived inside my head
I keep my phone face down
Like it might call your name
I should run when you get close
But I stay in the flame
[Pre-Chorus]
I try to turn, I try to go
But my body says no
You got that old pull on me
Like iron to a key
[Chorus]
Magnet on my skin
Pull me back again
So toxic, so drawn
I can't break from you long
Magnet on my skin
Round and round we spin
I want safe, I want space
Still I lean to your face
[Bridge]
If I knew how to leave
I'd do it clean
But you live in the ache
Between my yes and need
I want the door
I want the light
I want my name
Back in my life
[Chorus]
Magnet on my skin
Pull me back again
So toxic, so drawn
I can't break from you long
Magnet on my skin
Round and round we spin
I want safe, I want space
Still I lean to your face
