[Intro] I cut the label from my sleeve I keep the part you couldn’t read [Verse 1] You left your jacket on my chair Like you were coming back for air I changed the lock, I changed my name But every hallway sounds the same I paint a target on the wall Then miss it just to watch it fall You say I’m hard to recognize I say you never saw my eyes [Pre-Chorus] Count the cracks beneath the paint Hold your breath and hesitate If I disappear tonight Don’t turn my leaving into light [Chorus] I’m not your almost, not your afterthought Not the little war you thought you fought I’m cutting loose with both hands shaking A live-wire heart that won’t stop breaking Say my name, then let it fade I’m more than every mess you made I’m running fast, but I’m still here Louder than the thing I fear [Verse 2] Your photograph is face-down now The glass is gone, I don’t know how A cheap red lighter in the sink I watch it rust while I overthink My friends keep calling after ten I let it ring, then call again There’s lipstick on a paper cup A tiny proof I’m waking up [Pre-Chorus] Count the cracks beneath the paint Hold your breath and hesitate If I disappear tonight Don’t turn my leaving into light [Chorus] I’m not your almost, not your afterthought Not the little war you thought you fought I’m cutting loose with both hands shaking A live-wire heart that won’t stop breaking Say my name, then let it fade I’m more than every mess you made I’m running fast, but I’m still here Louder than the thing I fear [Breakdown] I heard you through the bathroom door I don’t live there anymore Turn the noise up, lock it out Let the ugly feeling shout [Bridge] Maybe I’m a little wrecked Maybe that’s what comes next I can bend without your hands I can build on broken plans [Final Chorus] I’m not your almost, not your afterthought Not the little war you thought you fought I’m cutting loose with both hands shaking A live-wire heart that won’t stop breaking Say my name, then let it fade I’m more than every mess you made I’m running fast, but I’m still here Louder than the thing I fear [Outro] I cut the label from my sleeve I keep the part you couldn’t read [Verse 1] Black nail polish, torn black jeans You skip class and break your dreams Phone screen glowing in your hand Say you’re fine, I know you can’t [Pre-Chorus] You laugh too hard Then fade too fast Got a storm in your chest And it won’t pass [Chorus] emo boy-boy-boy- emo boy-boy-boy- You hide it in your hair But I still know you’re there emo boy-boy-boy- emo boy-boy-boy- You bite back every prayer Still I’m pulling you near [Verse 2] Converse scuffed on the dirty floor Your bedroom door don’t close no more Old love letters in a shoebox stack You say “move on,” then you look right back [Pre-Chorus] You talk in sparks You burn in small Got a whole lit world Behind that wall [Chorus] emo boy-boy-boy- emo boy-boy-boy- You hide it in your hair But I still know you’re there emo boy-boy-boy- emo boy-boy-boy- You bite back every prayer Still I’m pulling you near [Bridge] If you fall, I’ll stay If you break, I’ll wait You don’t have to be Hard every day [Final Chorus] emo boy-boy-boy- emo boy-boy-boy- You hide it in your hair But I still know you’re there emo boy-boy-boy- emo boy-boy-boy- Say it like you don’t care I’ll be right there
