The New Script

The New Script Intro Oil slicks bleeding down the street Rain keeps time under my feet Glass in hand, it’s going warm You walk in like a coming storm Verse 1 Door swings wide, the room goes still You don’t ask—you just bend the will Every eye gets pulled your way I should leave, but I’m gonna stay You sit down like you own the night Say my name like you’ve got the right I don’t know you, not at all Still I’m waiting for the fall Pre-Chorus Don’t lean in— I won’t move I’ve been here I still choose Chorus You’re a silk-wrapped wrecking ball Steady hands, jagged teeth You don’t raise your voice Still you ruin me Every line I cross Feels like home again I know how this ends Still I’m all in Verse 2 Bartender looks away on cue He’s seen this play a time or two You don’t rush, you take your time Like breaking hearts is just your grind You say “relax,” I almost do Like I don’t know what comes from you There’s no gun, no smoking flame Still I’m losing just the same Pre-Chorus Don’t look back— Let it burn I don’t care If I don’t learn Chorus You’re a silk-wrapped wrecking ball Steady hands, jagged teeth You don’t raise your voice Still you ruin me Every line I cross Feels like home again I know how this ends Still I’m all in Bridge (stripped, uneasy) Count it out—one, two, three Every step pulls you through me Four, five—lose the thread Everything you said… unsaid I tried once to walk away Got halfway, then I stayed Something in the way you move Makes a liar out the truth Solo / Breakdown No sirens No fight Just you Every night No warning No sign Just step Out of line Final Chorus You’re a silk-wrapped wrecking ball Steady hands, jagged teeth You don’t raise your voice Still you ruin me Every line I cross Feels like home again I know how this ends Still I’m all in Outro The buzz flickers, then it dies You don’t wave, you don’t say goodbye I stand there like I’ve been cleaned out Same old story—different night
