[Intro 00:00–00:12] (clean guitar, low pad) I stopped it right there --- [Verse 1 00:12–00:32] We were leaning into it Same edge, same lines You had that look again Like you knew this time Felt it build in my chest Didn’t say a thing One more word from me Turns into something --- [Pre-Chorus 00:32–00:44] Right on the edge of it I felt it form If it leaves my mouth It doesn’t go --- [Chorus 00:44–01:08] Before I said something I can’t take back Before it hit and stayed like that Before it settled in your head And changed everything we had I held it in, I let it die Right where it almost made a sound You’ll never hear what almost came out --- [Verse 2 01:08–01:28] You kept talking through it Like nothing’s there I was right on the edge Trying not to care Every pause stretched out Every word felt thin You don’t see how close I get To letting it in --- [Pre-Chorus 01:28–01:40] It was already there Almost came through There’s a version of this That cuts into you --- [Chorus 01:40–02:04] Before I said something I can’t take back Before it hit and stayed like that Before it settled in your head And changed everything we had I held it in, I let it die Right where it almost made a sound You’ll never hear what almost came out --- [Bridge 02:04–02:28] (guitars widen, drums pull slightly) Still sitting under it Doesn’t go away Just stays quiet now Waiting for a day I step up to that line Then shut it down You don’t see how close it gets To burning this down --- [Final Chorus 02:28–02:58] (full lift) Before I said something I can’t take back Before it hit and stayed like that Before it settled in your head And broke everything we had I held it in, I let it die Buried it before a sound You’ll never hear what almost came out --- [Outro 02:58–03:12] I stopped it right there
