Don’t Call Me Mean

[Verse 1] I held your hand too long Till it felt like a lie You asked for my whole heart I gave you tired eyes [Pre-Chorus] I’m not cold, I’m cracked I’m just out of room Every “stay” you said Turned to something I outgrew [Chorus] I’m not mean I just don’t care Not like before Not like I was there I’m not mean I’m just too tired To keep on bleeding For a fire (for a fire) [Verse 2] Your texts stacked up Like rain on the sink I read every line Then I let it sink You wanted a soft girl A yes in the dark But I’m all sharp edges And a half-broken heart [Pre-Chorus] I’m not cold, I’m cracked I’m just out of room Every “stay” you said Turned to something I outgrew [Chorus] I’m not mean I just don’t care Not like before Not like I was there I’m not mean I’m just too tired To keep on bleeding For a fire (for a fire) [Bridge] If I walked away It was slow, not cruel I stayed till the love Turned heavy and dull So call me the villain If that gets you through But I lost my soft place Trying to carry you [Chorus] I’m not mean I just don’t care Not like before Not like I was there I’m not mean I’m just too tired To keep on bleeding For a fire (for a fire)
