I keep your key on my ring It bites my thumb when I run Past the laundromat doors Past the trucks in the slush You left your hoodie in my room Blue sleeve, bleach stain, torn cuff I still fold it like proof That I was enough I talk too fast when I panic You called that my storm Now I pace in the hall In my socks, in the dark Same old floor, same old crack Same old ache in my jaw And I swear I can taste What you took when you walked Say it again Say you meant it (say you meant it) I can't slow down When it hits like this My mouth is a train And it won't miss the cliff I'm right at the edge And I'm yelling your name Don't let go now Don't let go now (don't let go) I'm still here, I'm still loud I'm still torn up slow Don't let go now Don't let go now (don't let go) If you turn your back I will burn, I know You said: I need space Like a knife with a smile Then your tires threw rocks At the curb for a mile I watched from the stairs With my hands in my sleeves Like a kid trying hard Not to beg you to leave Now the sink's full of plates And the phone won't make sound Just your name on my screen And the room spinning round I rehearse every line Like a fight I can't win I spit truth at the wall Then I swallow it in Say it again Say you meant it (say you meant it) I can't slow down When it hits like this My mouth is a train And it won't miss the cliff I'm right at the edge And I'm yelling your name Don't let go now Don't let go now (don't let go) I'm still here, I'm still loud I'm still torn up slow Don't let go now Don't let go now (don't let go) If you turn your back I will burn, I know You were the match I was the paper I was the flood You were the breaker Now I'm a fist Full of your absence Now I'm a tooth On a cracked pendant Tell me where to put All this wreckage Tell me where to go When my chest gets reckless I don't want to hate you I just don't know how When your ghost sits beside me And eats from my doubt Say it Say you meant it (say you meant it) Break me Then mend it (then mend it) I am the sound Of the door coming loose I am the pulse That still comes for you Say it Say you meant it (say you meant it) I'm not gone I'm not done with this Don't let go now Don't let go now (don't let go) I'm still here, I'm still loud I'm still torn up slow Don't let go now Don't let go now (don't let go) If you turn your back I will burn, I know Don't let go now Don't let go now (don't let go) I'm still here, I'm still loud I'm still torn up slow
