[Verse 1]
You say "come over"
I type "I'm busy"
Stare at the bubbles
Like they're gonna fix me
Half of me reaching
Half of me ran
Holding your hand in my head
But I ghost you again
[Chorus]
I want you close
But stay away
I crave the fire
Fear the flame
I say "I'm fine" then beg you
"stay"
I want your love
At an arm's length
At an arm's length
[Verse 2]
You read my silence
Like it's a signal
You think I'm cold
I'm just too fragile
If you see the cracks
Will you step back?
I joke about leaving first
So you won't laugh
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I learned to build exits in every room
Smile on my face
But I'm watching for proof
If you really see me
All my worst parts
Will you hold my shaking hands
Or hand back my heart?
[Chorus]
