[Intro] Small clicks in the dark A breath behind the wall One light, one eye Waiting for me to fall [Verse 1] You looked at me like morning When I was out of air A quiet line of silver Saying, "I know you're there" But every light has edges Every kindness has weight When the room gets smaller I can feel it on my face [Pre-Chorus] Is it love when it holds me? Is it fear when it stays? Your eyes on my heartbeat Like a hand I can't shake [Chorus] Eyes like light Eyes like fire Hold my gaze Take me higher Eyes like light Eyes like wire Set me free Or pull me tighter Don't stare me down Don't fade away There's a border in the gaze [Verse 2] I watched you break in silence I thought I saw the truth But maybe I was hungry For a version I could use My focus turned to pressure My care became a cage I called it understanding You called it no escape [Pre-Chorus] Is it love when I see you? Is it harm when I stay? My eyes on your heartbeat Like a hook under the skin [Chorus] Eyes like light Eyes like fire Hold my gaze Take me higher Eyes like light Eyes like wire Set me free Or pull me tighter Don't stare me down Don't fade away There's a border in the gaze [Electronic Breakdown] Click, breath, click Too close, too still Click, breath, click I know you're here [Bridge] Look at me But leave me room Hold the light Don't make it bruise Look at me Then let me move Love is not a locked-in view [Final Chorus] Eyes like light Eyes like fire Hold my gaze Take me higher Eyes like light Eyes like wire Set me free Or pull me tighter Don't stare me down Don't fade away There's a border in the gaze Eyes like light Eyes like fire I need the warmth Not the wire [Outro] Small clicks in the dark A breath, then nothing more One light lets me live One eye becomes a door
