[Verse 1] You found me by the broken gate Rain on your sleeves, late by a minute You said my name like it still had weight Like I was worth the wait in it My hands were stone, my mouth was a bruise You touched the edge and stayed No pretty words, just the truth And I felt the dead skin fade [Pre-Chorus] Now my heart won't shut its door When you knock, it shakes the frame I was built for keeping score You taught me to say your name [Chorus] You pull me back You pull me back From the edge I wear so well You pull me back You pull me back When I cannot save myself Hold me close Hold me close Till the crack in me goes still You pull me back You pull me back And I know you always will [Verse 2] I left my jacket on your chair Still smells like your sweet smoke Your cheap perfume in the air And the way you laugh like hope I tried to run, I tried to fight Tried to make my mind go cold But you cut through all my night Like a hand around my soul [Pre-Chorus] Now my heart won't shut its door When you knock, it shakes the frame I was built for keeping score You taught me to say your name [Chorus] You pull me back You pull me back From the edge I wear so well You pull me back You pull me back When I cannot save myself Hold me close Hold me close Till the crack in me goes still You pull me back You pull me back And I know you always will [Bridge] If the world comes down on us I'll stand where you can breathe Let it tear my old blood up As long as you don't leave Say my name One more time Make the black in me unbend I'll be yours Through the noise Till the bottom meets the end [Final Chorus] You pull me back You pull me back From the edge I wear so well You pull me back You pull me back When I cannot save myself Hold me close Hold me close Till the crack in me goes still You pull me back You pull me back And I know you always will You pull me back You pull me back Yeah, you always will
