Your breath skips, keeps missing the beat, And you keep saying you’re just tired. [Pre-Chorus] Say something—say anything at all, Don’t make me guess what you’re carrying. I know this room feels heavier now, But tell me where you went—tell me where you are. [Chorus] Don’t you fade, don’t hide away. This isn’t nothing, I can’t look away. Stay on the line, keep your voice in the air, Stay on the line—just stay right there. [Verse 2] I hear you making everything small, Laughing when the question gets near it. You say, “It’s fine,” then look at the door Like you’ve already left the room. [Pre-Chorus] Say something—say you feel me here, I’m not going anywhere tonight. I’m not here to tell you how to fix it, Just tell me what keeps you this far inside. [Chorus] Don’t you fade, don’t hide away. This isn’t nothing, I can’t look away. Stay on the line, keep your voice in the air, Stay on the line—just stay right there. [Bridge] I don’t know what I’m supposed to do. I don’t know if I’ll say the wrong thing. But I’d rather sit here scared with you Than let you disappear while I wait. [Final Chorus] Don’t you fade, don’t hide away. This isn’t nothing, I won’t look away. Stay on the line, even if you can’t talk, Stay on the line—I’m here through it all. [end]
