Black Ice Prayer

[Verse 1] I left my truth in the coatroom Next to your name on a folded receipt My hands still smell like the rain And the doors keep breathing behind me You wore that smile like a warning I wore my scars like a chain Every mirror in the hallway Showed me the same black frame [Pre-Chorus] If I call, will you cut me loose? If I fall, will you let it bruise? I been dancing on a thin line I been praying for the hard truth [Chorus] Hold me under, hold me close (hold me close) I’m the one you almost know (almost know) Run that pulse through my bones (run it back) If I break, let it show (let it show) [Verse 2] I kept your picture in my wallet Like a match in a paper sky Every promise I ever made you Was a coin with a burned-out side Now the room spins in slow circles Like a ring on a broken chain I can taste the metal midnight When your shadow says my name [Pre-Chorus] If I call, will you cut me loose? If I fall, will you let it bruise? I been dancing on a thin line I been praying for the hard truth [Chorus] Hold me under, hold me close (hold me close) I’m the one you almost know (almost know) Run that pulse through my bones (run it back) If I break, let it show (let it show) [Bridge] I ain’t clean, I ain’t holy Just a flame in a glass of rain If the floor drops out beneath me I’ll still call your name [Chorus] Hold me under, hold me close (hold me close) I’m the one you almost know (almost know) Run that pulse through my bones (run it back) If I break, let it show (let it show)
