(Verse 1) I’m not the one who twists and plays, I’ve never pulled those strings your way. I’m covered in scars, broken and bare, I see who you chose, I know who’s there. Still, I dive into the pain, awake, But reality strikes, it makes me break. (Chorus) Love me like you love her, please, Hold me close, put my mind at ease. Whisper soft, like you do for her, Let me drown where the lines all blur. Just let me stay drunk, don’t wake me up, Let this dream be enough. (Verse 2) You call it a threat, but it’s my despair, Struggling alone in a world unfair. This fight with you, I know my role, The losing side is what I hold. I plead, I beg, but I’m still undone, A shadow chasing a setting sun. (Chorus) Love me like you love her, please, Hold me close, put my heart at ease. Tell me sweet lies, just one more night, Let me believe that this feels right. Just let me stay drunk, don’t wake me up, Let this dream be enough. (Bridge) I know the truth, I’ve seen the end, But can’t I pretend just once again? Don’t let me face this empty air, Just hold me like I’m really there. (Chorus – Reprise) Love me like you love her, please, Save me from the ache that never leaves. Let me sink in this bittersweet glow, Pretend you care, don’t let it show. Just let me stay drunk, don’t wake me up, Let this dream be enough. (Outro) I’ll take the pain when morning comes, But tonight, let me be the only one. Love me like you love her, just for now, Let me drown, I’ll figure out how.
