Say it low

V5.5

Verse 1 You don’t raise your voice no more Just let it fall where it lands There’s a quiet in the way you move I don’t understand You look at me like you used to But something don’t sit the same Like there’s words you ain’t saying Hanging in my name Pre-Chorus (barely there) You don’t have to say it loud I can hear it now Chorus (low, restrained) So say it low Like you don’t wanna break it Like it’s already gone Say it slow Like you’re trying to save it But you know you won’t I don’t need you to lie to me Just don’t drag it out If it’s leaving, let it leave You can say it low Verse 2 There’s a glass you keep turning Like it’s got something to say And the silence in between us Ain’t going away I could ask, but I won’t I already feel the truth There’s a distance in your shadow Even when I’m next to you Pre-Chorus You don’t have to draw it out I can hear it now Chorus So say it low Like you don’t wanna break it Like it’s already gone Say it slow Like you’re trying to save it But you know you won’t I don’t need you to lie to me Just don’t drag it out If it’s leaving, let it leave You can say it low Bridge (almost spoken) We both know where this is heading We just ain’t said it yet (slight lift) You don’t have to make it heavy It already is Final Chorus (slightly fuller, still restrained) So say it low Like it barely matters But it matters now Say it slow Like you’re holding onto Something falling down I don’t need you to fight for me I just need the truth If it’s over, let it be Just say it low Outro (whispered tone) Yeah… just say it low
