Intro (whispered) Yeah… Don’t hide it from me ⸻ Verse 1 Let me pick up your broken pieces Even the ones you keep tucked away I see the cracks when you smile at me Like you learned how to fake okay You don’t talk about where you been You don’t name who made you this way But your hands still shake when it’s quiet Like the past don’t ever stay late I don’t need you whole tonight I don’t need you healed or strong Just don’t lock the door on me When the dark come creeping on ⸻ Pre-Chorus You flinch when I say forever Like love always come with a cost I won’t swear I’m better than them But I won’t disappear when you’re lost ⸻ Hook Let me pick up your broken pieces Even the ones you hide in the dark I know love left you incomplete I’m not scared of the missing parts Lay it all on my chest, don’t explain it You ain’t gotta be fixed to be mine Let me pick up your broken pieces I’ll hold ’em like they still shine ⸻ Verse 2 You say you don’t wanna lean on me Like needing someone is weak But you fall asleep mid-sentence Soon as your head touch me You apologize for your damage Like pain is a personal flaw I don’t see ruins, I see survival Still standing after it all If you push me away, I stay close If you go quiet, I wait I don’t love you for what you could be I love you right here in this state ⸻ Pre-Chorus 2 They taught you love always leaves So you keep one foot out the door I won’t chase you into nothing But I won’t walk away either, no ⸻ Hook Let me pick up your broken pieces Even the ones you hide in the dark I know love left you incomplete I’m not scared of the missing parts Lay it all on my chest, don’t explain it You ain’t gotta be fixed to be mine Let me pick up your broken pieces I’ll hold ’em like they still shine ⸻ Bridge (minimal — drums drop out) If you’re afraid I’ll see too much Good — I wanna see it all Every scar, every doubt Every night you almost fall Don’t clean it up for me Don’t soften the truth If you’re shattered, bring it here I got room for you ⸻ Final Hook Let me pick up your broken pieces Even the ones you hate the most I don’t need you untouched I just need you close Let me pick up your broken pieces Stay while the world stays loud You don’t gotta be whole for me You just gotta stay right now ⸻ Outro (whispered, layered) Stay… I got you Even like this
