Stay Where I Put You

[Intro] You don’t leave… You just forget who you belong to. [Verse 1] You drift like smoke through open doors, Say you’re free but circle back for more, Every word you drop feels rehearsed— Like you love me second, fear me first. You touch like you’re testing the line, Like one more step might cost you your mind, But you lean in slow when I say your name— Yeah, you hate the pull, but you stay the same. [Pre-Chorus] You run, you stall, you hesitate— But you never make it past the gate, Say it’s wrong, say it’s too much heat— Then you’re right back underneath me. [Chorus] Stay where I put you—don’t break the frame, You call it control, I call it your name, Every time you try to slip away, You come back shaking just the same. Stay where I need you—don’t play pretend, You know exactly how this ends, You say you’re leaving—then you prove You were never meant to move. [Verse 2] You like the edge where it almost snaps, Where love turns sharp and pulls you back, You say “too far” with your hands on me, Like restraint is just a fantasy. Every warning you ever gave Sounds like a dare you couldn’t save, You build your walls just to watch them fall— Yeah, you don’t want out… not at all. [Pre-Chorus] Say you’re done, say it’s the last time— But your pulse still syncs up with mine, Every “no” comes out too weak— When your body’s already speaking. [Chorus] Stay where I put you—don’t break the frame, You call it control, I call it your name, Every time you try to slip away, You come back shaking just the same. Stay where I need you—don’t play pretend, You know exactly how this ends, You say you’re leaving—then you prove You were never meant to move. [Bridge] Say it—say you don’t need this, Say it—like you believe it, Say it—while you’re still breathing me in. You don’t fight it when it’s real, You just dress it up as something you can feel, Call it wrong, call it sin— But you still let me pull you in. [Final Chorus] Stay where I put you—don’t break the frame, You call it control, I call it your name, Every time you try to slip away, You come back shaking just the same. Stay where I need you—don’t play pretend, You know exactly how this ends, You say you’re leaving—then you prove You were never meant to move. [Outro] You don’t leave… You just come back slower. And I’m always right where you left me.
