Verse 1]
You pull me close, but your eyes look far,
Touch my skin but forget my heart.
I keep waiting for a different sign,
But you only show up when it’s right on time.
Wine glass spilled on the bathroom floor,
We’ve been here, I can’t count before.
It’s a cycle I can’t let go,
You love me halfway, and I still want more.
⸻
[Chorus]
Why you only call me in the midnight silence?
Why you only love me when there’s no one watchin’?
I can’t keep living off the crumbs you give,
But damn, I can’t forget the way you live in my skin.
⸻
[Verse 2]
You swear I’m safe, then you burn me down,
Got me screaming but I make no sound.
Your ghost sleeps heavy in my bed,
But I keep your sweater, can’t lose the thread.
⸻
[Bridge]
And I hate how I love the way you break me,
Hate how your absence always shakes me.
Promise after promise, and I still believe,
‘Cause leaving you feels like losing me.
⸻
[Chorus – repeat/stronger]
Why you only call me in the midnight silence?
Why you only love me when there’s no one watchin’?
I can’t keep living off the crumbs you give,
But damn, I can’t forget the way you live in my skin.
⸻
[Outro]
Halfway love, halfway truth,
I’m stuck between the whole of you.
Halfway gone, but halfway stay,
Guess I love you in a broken way.
