[Verse 1] I know the weak seam in the wall The little shove that ends it all Some days the wreck looks almost bright A clean white page after the fight [Pre-Chorus] I picture every bolt undone Then see your face when morning comes [Chorus] I want to watch the whole thing break To feel the ground reset beneath me But I can name the hurt it makes And that is where my hands stay steady I keep the match inside my fist Because I know who’d stand in the smoke [Verse 2] I could walk out before the dawn Leave every promise overdrawn A new life sounds like open air Until I count the hearts left there [Pre-Chorus] I picture every bolt undone Then hear your voice before I run [Chorus] I want to watch the whole thing break To feel the ground reset beneath me But I can name the hurt it makes And that is where my hands stay steady I keep the match inside my fist Because I know who’d stand in the smoke [Bridge] You would be left with half a sentence I would be free, and still remember So I stay here, not out of fear But for the ones I want near [Final Chorus] I want to watch the whole thing break But I can choose what gets to leave me I’ll clear one corner, make it plain And let the rest change slowly I keep the match inside my fist Then open up my hand [Outro] I’m still here I’m still here
