[Verse 1] You say that you are fine Sip coffee till it’s cold Laugh at all the wrong times Like you’re reading from a role [Pre-Chorus] But your hands keep shaking When the room goes quiet You stare past my shoulder Like you’re somewhere higher [Chorus] It’s the sadness in your eyes That tells me every secret All the things you never write On the walls of your regret You don’t have to act alright You don’t have to fake that smile Let it break Let it rise I see the sadness in your eyes [Verse 2] Your phone lights up the dark You flip it face-down fast Say you’ve never been better Change the subject Then you laugh [Pre-Chorus] But your voice turns paper-thin On the names you’re dodging You go quiet mid-sentence Like the words are watching [Chorus] It’s the sadness in your eyes That tells me every secret All the things you never write On the walls of your regret You don’t have to act alright You don’t have to fake that smile Let it break Let it rise I see the sadness in your eyes [Bridge] Let it pour Let it pour On my shoulder On this floor (yeah) Every scar you’ve tried to hide I’m not going anywhere tonight [Chorus] It’s the sadness in your eyes I don’t turn away I keep it All the pieces you confide I will hold them I will keep them You don’t have to act alright You don’t have to chase that high Let it break Let it rise You’re still loved with all that Sadness in your eyes
