Breakin Me Slow

Your phone been singin’ songs I can’t hear. Screen glow cuttin’ holes in the air. You say my name like you tired of it. Kiss me like you already forgot who I am. I trace the lies in the way you breathe. Every pause sayin’ more than me. I know the truth, I just let it slip. Like a loaded gun on my fingertip. You don’t even hide it well. I just pretend I can’t tell. I drink the doubt like it’s medicine. Hurts less than facin’ the end. I know you breakin’ me slow. Still I don’t let you go. I wear your love like a bruise on my Skin. Purple and blue, but I call it blessed. I know you lie when you say my name. Still I stay in your rain. Yeah, I see the knife, I still lean in. I got comfortable livin’ in the dark with you. Your silence louder than your lies. Room full of echoes, nowhere to hide. You say I’m crazy, say I need help. But I only lost myself lovin’ you, Girl. You come home smellin’ like someone new. I know you livin’ foul, but I’ll never prove. You say trust me, and I swallow my pride. The truth tastes bitter, but I let it slide. I rehearse leavin’ every night. But your touch erase the fight. I’d trade my soul for another day. Just to hear you say my name. I know you breakin’ me slow. Still I don’t let you go. I wear your love like a bruise on my Skin. Purple and blue, but I call it blessed. I know you lie when you say my name. Still I stay in your rain. Yeah, I see the knife, I still lean in. I got comfortable livin’ in the dark with you. 808’s cryin’ where my heart should beat. I sleep beside you, still lonely. I beg the truth to set me free. But I’m scared of who I’d be without your Misery. If love’s a curse, then I’m damned by It. Drowned in hope, still denyin’ it. I see the door, I know the way. But pain with you feels safer than escape. I know you breakin’ me slow. Still I don’t let you go. Your shadow feel better than bein’ alone. So I suffer in silence and call it home. I know you lie when you say my name. But I still stay livin’ in the pain. Yeah, I see the knife, but I still lean In. I got comfortable livin’ in the dark with you. One day The light gon’ find me, But Tonight I’m livin’ in the dark again Again But at least I’m in it with you
