[Verse 1] I'm not digging, you can dig your own hole That's too much work, I ain't taking that role You toss your secrets like you’re tossing that dirt But every little shovel full is starting to hurt You say you’re private, then you drag me inside You swear you’re guarded, but your mouth’s open wide Why would I waste time trying to break that ground When you bury me in stories every time you’re around [Pre-Chorus] You say, "Don't ask, don't look, don't pry" But you pour it on thick, then you wonder why I’m drowning in the mess that you claim’s your own And I’m sick of getting buried every time we’re alone [Chorus] Stop digging, stop digging, you keep handing me the spade You say it’s your business, but you built me in the shade You shovel every secret like you want me in the know Then you tell me, "Back off, baby, let my garden grow" Stop digging, stop digging, but you push me in the hole You say I cross a line while you empty out your soul If you don’t want me in it, why you throwing me the dirt? I’m tired of all the digging ‘til my back and my heart hurt [Verse 2] You say, "Don’t question who I text late at night" Then you read every message to me under the light You tell me, "Don’t worry ‘bout the things that I do" Then you list out the details ‘til they stick like glue You say, "My past is mine, let it rest in the ground" Then you dig it up screaming every name, every town You say, "Stay out of it, just leave it alone" But you’re dropping every secret like a stone on a stone [Pre-Chorus] You say, "Don’t ask, don’t look, don’t pry" But you pour it on thick, then you wonder why Your shovel full of stories keeps landing on me And I’m stuck in your trenches when I just want to breathe [Chorus] Stop digging, stop digging, you keep handing me the spade You say it’s your business, but you built me in the shade You shovel every secret like you want me in the know Then you tell me, "Back off, baby, let my garden grow" Stop digging, stop digging, but you push me in the hole You say I cross a line while you empty out your soul If you don’t want me in it, why you throwing me the dirt? I’m tired of all the digging ‘til my back and my heart hurt [Bridge] Maybe it’s not me digging, maybe it’s the hole Maybe it’s the way you need someone to hold Every dark little thing that you can’t let go So you bury me in shadows that I never asked to know You keep saying, "It’s mine, don’t you dare touch this ground" While you’re carving out a graveyard with every sound If you want some distance, you gotta let it lie Stop loading up the shovel like you want me inside [Hook] Don’t say "Don’t dig" when you hand me the shovel Don’t cry "Too deep" when you stir up the rubble If you want your space, then let that dirt stay cold Stop digging me in when you can’t let go [Chorus] Stop digging, stop digging, you keep handing me the spade You say it’s your business, but you built me in the shade You shovel every secret like you want me in the know Then you tell me, "Back off, baby, let my garden grow" Stop digging, stop digging, but you push me in the hole You say I cross a line while you empty out your soul If you don’t want me in it, why you throwing me the dirt? I’m tired of all the digging ‘til my back and my heart hurt [Outro] I’m not digging, you can dig your own hole You keep tossing all your troubles till they swallow us whole If you want me on the surface, then just let me be Quit burying me in business you don’t want me to see
