Lyrics
You never healed, you only spreadInside my lungs, inside my headI called it love, I called it fateBut now I see it was too late
Every word you left behindStill rewrites my fragile mindI tried to leave, I tried to runBut you were already what I’d become
Tell me why it feels like homeEven when I’m skin and boneI know you break what I defendStill I return again and again
You were the collapse inside my chestThe thing I couldn’t resistEvery time I tried to healYou became what I still feelYou were the collapse
No salvation in your nameOnly quiet growing painYou were the collapse — I fall, I stay
I memorized your every flawLike it was something I adoredEven when it tore me downI still wore you like a crown
You never asked me to surviveYou only kept me half aliveAnd I mistook the ache you gaveFor something I should still crave
If this was love, it left me blindOr maybe I was out of mindBecause I still come back to youLike it’s the only thing I knew
You were the collapse inside my chestThe thing I couldn’t resistEvery time I tried to healYou became what I still feelYou were the collapse
No salvation in your nameOnly quiet growing painYou were the collapse — I fall, I stay
Don’t let me goDon’t set me freeI don’t know who I would beWithout the ruin you gave me
Fall back inFall againI pretendI don’t need this end
You were the collapse inside my chestThe thing I couldn’t resistEvery time I tried to healYou became what I still feelYou were the collapse
No salvation in your nameOnly quiet growing painYou were the collapse — I fall, I stay
Still reaching back…even now…
