Don't Tell

[Verse 1] You left just before the sun came up Still feeling your hands on my skin when I woke up The bed still warm where your body had been Another night we swore we’d never do again Your hoodie still hanging on the back of my chair The scent of you lingering heavy in the air We both act surprised when it happens once more But deep down we know we’ve been here before [Pre-Chorus] I know the rules we keep repeating (I know the rules we keep repeating) But every time you text, I stop competing (But every time you text, I stop competing) [Chorus] Keep it locked between these walls Just another secret that we never call Don’t tell, don’t say a word Don’t tell what happened when the lights got blurred [Verse 2] We move too easy for something so wrong Falling into each other like we belong Your mouth on my neck, my fingers in your hair The way the sheets got tangled while the city stayed unaware No promises spoken, no plans for tomorrow Just the heat of the moment and the quiet that follows I already know I’ll unlock the door again Let you in like I always do, no questions then [Bridge] If anyone asks, we were just friends hanging out Nothing more than late-night conversations, no doubt I replay the way you whispered against my skin How the room felt smaller every time you pulled me in [Final Chorus] Keep it locked between these walls Just another secret that we never call Don’t tell, don’t say a word Don’t tell what happened when the lights got blurred
