[Intro — low pulse, breath, distant strings] If I say run— don't listen to my voice. Look at my eyes. [Verse 1] There's something in the room with us that doesn't need a face. It moves when I move, breathes when I breathe, wears me like a place. You know the way I hold my hands. You know the way I lie. So if I smile too easily— look closer. I'm still inside. [Pre-Chorus] I might tell you I don't know you. I might say I never did. I might put a knife between us— but that won't make it mine. [Chorus] IF I SAY RUN, COME CLOSER. IF I SAY LEAVE, DON'T GO. IF I SAY I DON'T LOVE YOU, YOU KNOW ME BETTER THAN I KNOW. IF I TURN INTO SOMEBODY YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE— DON'T TRUST MY MOUTH. LOOK IN MY EYES. [Verse 2] It knows every door inside me. It knows which one to use. It takes the words I mean the most and turns them into tools. It knows your oldest wound. It knows exactly where to press. So if I make you hate me— please remember that's what it wants. [Pre-Chorus] I might call you by the wrong name. I might make you bleed. I might sound like I've become it. Don't believe me. Believe me. [Chorus] IF I SAY RUN, COME CLOSER. IF I SAY LEAVE, DON'T GO. IF I SAY I DON'T LOVE YOU, YOU KNOW ME BETTER THAN I KNOW. IF I TURN INTO SOMEBODY YOU DON'T RECOGNIZE— DON'T TRUST MY MOUTH. LOOK IN MY EYES. [Bridge — beat drops out, strings and voice] If I hurt you— I was there. If I heard you— I was there. If you called my name and I didn't answer— I was there. I was there. I was there. [Build — industrial percussion enters] So break the lock. Break the glass. Break whatever has its hands on me. But don't break me trying to set me free. [Final Chorus — huge, layered] IF I SAY RUN, COME CLOSER. IF I SAY LEAVE, DON'T GO. IF I SAY I DON'T LOVE YOU, HOLD ON TO WHAT YOU KNOW. IF I TURN INTO SOMEBODY WHO CAN'T REMEMBER WHY— DON'T TRUST MY MOUTH. LOOK IN MY EYES. LOOK IN MY EYES. [Outro — pulse fading] If I say run— come find me. I'm still inside.
