Lyrics

[Intro]
(yeah…)
(you up?)

[Hook]
I can’t sleep with that ceiling light on
It feel like you’re gone when I’m not strong
I keep sayin’ I’ll change, but I won’t
I keep reachin’ for you with my hands tied, hands tied
I can’t sleep with that ceiling light on
I text “I’m fine” and I leave my phone off
If you love me, don’t love me too long
‘Cause I break good things when they get mine, get mine

[Verse 1]
Bathroom mirror lookin’ like an enemy
Eyes red, same ache, same chemistry
I’m a “sorry” with a pulse, that’s the truth in me
I’m a bed full of ghosts and a memory
Streetlights smear on the glass when I’m drivin’
Same route, same doubt, I keep hidin’
I hear your name in the buzz of the high-end
Hate how I’m brave when I’m dyin’ inside and
I don’t wanna drag you into my weather
But I only feel warm when we’re together
Then I get scared, start cuttin’ the tether
Act like I don’t care—yeah, whatever
(whatever…)

[Hook]
I can’t sleep with that ceiling light on
It feel like you’re gone when I’m not strong
I keep sayin’ I’ll change, but I won’t
I keep reachin’ for you with my hands tied, hands tied
I can’t sleep with that ceiling light on
I text “I’m fine” and I leave my phone off
If you love me, don’t love me too long
‘Cause I break good things when they get mine, get mine

[Verse 2]
I been learnin’ how to smile like a sponsor
Sell a version of me that’s a monster
But you saw the kid in the costume (uh)
Now I’m mad you can see through the false move
Late night, heart like a loose wire sparkin’
I say “pull up,” then I panic and I’m guardin’
I want you close, I want space, that’s the problem
I keep throwin’ little wars in the garden
And it’s shame, it’s a chain, it’s a habit
It’s a song I replay ‘til it happens
If you leave, I’ll deserve it, I’m classic
If you stay, I’ll get worse, I can’t mask it
So I stare at the ceiling, light bleedin’
Tryna tell myself you got reasons
Tryna tell myself I’m not poison
But my hands shake every time I’m holdin’
(holdin’ you…)

[Bridge]
If I say “don’t go,” will it sound like a threat?
If I say “I love you,” will you place your bets?
I don’t wanna be the thing you regret
But I’m tired of meetin’ me like this—yeah

[Outro]
Ceiling light still on…
phone face down…
(yeah)
If you’re still here tomorrow
I’ma try, I’ma try…
