[Verse 1]
Woke up with a bruise on my memory
Teeth marks in the shape of your name
You said love, but it felt like surgery
Cut deep, then you walked away
Black nails tapping on the hospital rail
IV drip of your half‑meant words
You prayed for me in a midnight voicemail
Then laughed like the whole thing’s absurd
[Pre-Chorus]
You say I’m “too much”
I say you’re too numb
We dance on the edge
Daring it to come
[Chorus]
Thorns in my halo
Blood on your crown
You lift me to heaven
Then slam me back down
I’m bleeding I’m breathing
Still choking on faith
If love is salvation
Why does it taste like hate?
[Verse 2]
Lipstick on the blade of my bedroom mirror
Every crack spelling out “too late”
Your ghost in a hoodie on the closet hanger
Watching every step that I take
I scream in the car with the windows up
Chew glass just to feel my tongue
You call when you’re bored and your show’s on break
Say you miss how I came undone
[Pre-Chorus]
You say I’m “so dark”
I say you’re all shade
We flirt with the end
Like it’s some arcade
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
[low vocal register]
I count the pills like petals
“He loves me, he loves me not”
But I’m not a garden
I’m rust on the parking lot
[growled backing]
Every “stay” sounds like “leave”
Every hug feels like a shove
If this is the way out
Then why am I still in love?
[crescendo]
Hands on my throat, but it’s my own fingers
You on my mind, but the picture flickers
[Chorus]
