I feel your heart through the cracks in my skin,
But I keep my distance, too afraid, always been.
Dancing on glass, itâs breaking beneath,
I know what you need, but canât give you peace.
You light the fire, but Iâm stuck in the cold,
Trapped in my fears, and losing control.
Youâre reaching for something that I canât be,
And I hate that youâre breaking because of me.
(Chorus):
Behind closed doors, we tear at the seams,
Weâre chasing a high that lives in our dreams.
Youâre screaming for truth, Iâm bleeding out lies,
Iâm burning inside but dead in your eyes.
Behind closed doors, weâre drowning in doubt,
Iâm holding you close while Iâm shutting you out.
You wear the scars of the promises made,
But Iâm just a shadow thatâs starting to fade.
I told you from the start, I canât commit,
But here we are, still lost in all of it.
You want forever, I canât even stay,
Weâre stuck in a game, but we both know weâll play.
You deserve more, but I keep you chained,
In a heart thatâs fractured, bleeding, stained.
(Chorus):
Behind closed doors, we tear at the seams,
Weâre chasing a high that lives in our dreams.
Youâre screaming for truth, Iâm bleeding out lies,
Iâm burning inside but dead in your eyes.
Behind closed doors, weâre drowning in doubt,
Iâm holding you close while Iâm shutting you out.
(Bridge):
Weâre fighting for something thatâs already gone,
Holding the pieces but nothing feels strong.
You canât keep fixing what I let break,
Iâm losing the battle that I shouldnât take.
(Chorus):
Behind closed doors, we tear at the seams,
Weâre chasing a high that lives in our dreams.
Youâre screaming for truth, Iâm bleeding out lies,
Iâm burning inside but dead in your eyes.
Behind closed doors, weâre drowning in doubt,
Iâm holding you close while Iâm shutting you out.
(Outro):
Shutting you out...
But Iâm holding you close...
Shutting you out...
While I lose what matters most
