I retrace my steps, was it something I said? My hands close on air where yours used to rest. [Pre-Chorus] It’s not the first time I’ve tried to patch the tear, With a crumpled apology shaking in my hand. [Chorus] I’ll hold this together if it cuts all the same. I’ll bend ’til I break just to hear your name. It might not be enough to stay, But I’ll stay. [Verse 2] This room feels sharper, smaller somehow. I fold the blanket back over your side. I offer you pieces, I know they’re too thin, Then bite back the question and sit there again. [Pre-Chorus] The tighter I hold it, the thinner it gets, But I can’t let go of where we haven’t broken yet. [Chorus] I’ll hold this together if it cuts all the same. I’ll bend ’til I break just to hear your name. It might not be enough to stay, But I’ll stay. [Bridge] You won’t say what happened, I won’t make you say. That’s the part that keeps wearing me down. I can mend what you hand me, not what you hide, So I wait in the room with the light turned down. [Final Chorus] I’ll hold this together if it cuts all the same. I’ll bend ’til I break just to hear your name. It may never be enough to stay, But I’ll stay. Even if this love wears thin, I’ll stay. [end]
