[Verse 1] You check my phone before I breathe Ask where I’ve been like I owe receipts You like my hair when it’s pinned down tight You pick my clothes on a Friday night If I laugh too loud, you go cold Say I’m “too much” when I’m being bold [Pre-Chorus] I kept shrinking to keep you calm Kept my voice low, kept my hands in palms You called it love I called it fear I got real small While you got near [Chorus] You want hands on my time Hands on my mind Hands on every little piece you can find You say “stay here” I say “I’m fine” But I’m breaking slow Under your line Hands on my time (Hands on my time) [Verse 2] You read my silence like a crime Then twist my words every single time If I need space, you call me cruel If I speak up, I’m breaking the rules You don’t hit hard You just don’t let go You make a cage out of “I love you” slow [Pre-Chorus] I kept apologizing first Like my soft heart was the one that’d burst You called it care I called it strain Now every kind word Tastes like pain [Chorus] You want hands on my time Hands on my mind Hands on every little piece you can find You say “stay here” I say “I’m fine” But I’m breaking slow Under your line Hands on my time (Hands on my time) [Bridge] I still hear you in my name Like a lock clicking shut in my brain I miss the good I hate the cost I stayed too long And I got lost If love means bending till I’m gone Then love was wrong From the very first song [Final Chorus] You want hands on my time Hands on my mind Hands on every little piece you can find You say “stay here” I say “I’m fine” But I’m walking out This time, this time Hands on my time (Hands on my time) Hands on my time (Hands on my time)
