Verse 1 
I laugh too loud to hide my fear,
I pull you close, then disappear.
I swear I’m fine, but I don’t sleep,
I keep my secrets buried deep.

I promise change, but never do,
I paint my pain a softer hue.
You hold my hand, I look away,
I want tomorrow, dread today.

Pre-Chorus 
And I don’t know why you don’t run,
I’m the damage I can’t outrun.
If I were you, I’d walk away,
But somehow you choose to stay.

Chorus (repeatable mantra, 4 lines)
If I’m not whole, but just a piece,
Why do you stay with half of me?
I break, I bend, I never heal,
Still you’re the only thing I feel.

I fall apart, you pick me up,
You call it love, I call it luck.
I give you less than what you need,
But you still choose the half of me.

Verse 2 
I love too hard, it makes me weak,
The words get stuck before I speak.
I pick the fight, then beg for peace,
I push until I’m on my knees.

You see the cracks I try to hide,
The way I’m fractured deep inside.
And though I’m scared of what you’ll find,
You love the mess I leave behind.

Pre-Chorus 
And I don’t know why you don’t run,
I’m the damage I can’t outrun.
If I were you, I’d walk away,
But somehow you choose to stay.

Chorus 
If I’m not whole, but just a piece,
Why do you stay with half of me?
I break, I bend, I never heal,
Still you’re the only thing I feel.

I fall apart, you pick me up,
You call it love, I call it luck.
I give you less than what you need,
But you still choose the half of me.

Bridge 
Maybe you see the light I can’t,
Maybe you’re more than circumstance.
Maybe I’m broken, but you still believe,
There’s more to love than what’s left of me.

Maybe you see the light I can’t,
Maybe you’re more than circumstance.
Maybe I’m broken, but you still believe,
There’s more to love than what’s left of me.

Final Chorus
If I’m not whole, but just a piece,
Why do you stay with half of me?
I break, I bend, I never heal,
Still you’re the only thing I feel.

I fall apart, you pick me up,
You call it love, I call it luck.
I give you less than what you need,
But you still choose the half of me.

Outro (2 lines, fading)
Half of me, half of me,
Still you’re the one who stays with me.
