[Verse 1] You wear your silence like a tailored coat Every room tilts when you clear your throat I know that look, the one that never asks You make a throne from an empty glass [Pre-Chorus] Come closer, keep your hands where I can see You like the danger better when it answers me [Chorus] You want the door, but you want me inside You keep your pride like a blade at your side Say my name with that borrowed control I’ll take the surface, you keep the soul [Verse 2] Your silver ring taps once against the table You tell your stories only when they’re useful A half-smile cuts through the room like weather You leave me waiting just to pull me nearer [Pre-Chorus] Come closer, keep your hands where I can see You like the danger better when it answers me [Chorus] You want the door, but you want me inside You keep your pride like a blade at your side Say my name with that borrowed control I’ll take the surface, you keep the soul [Bridge] No promises, no alibis Just your cool breath and those practiced eyes If you’re going to run, run slow Give me one last thing to know [Instrumental] [Final Chorus] You want the door, but you want me inside You keep your pride like a blade at your side Say my name with that borrowed control I’ll take the surface, you keep the soul [Outro] Keep your pride, keep your beautiful pose I know exactly where the weakness goes
