Velvet Trigger

You walk like a secret I forgot to lock
The silence bends when your fingers talk
If I step back, will you come forward?
Or is this room already marked for war?

Should I cross the line or draw it darker?
Do I want you here, or just the danger?

My pulse says go, but my voice won't
And you just smile like you've won this game
So pull me close or let me fall
I'll burn too bright to feel it all

Break it all, just take it all (take it all)
Feel it all, go fake it all (go fake it all)
I told myself I'm not the one who hurt so bad
If it is so easy, why does it burn?

Why does it burn?
Why does it hurt?
Why does it burn?
Why does it hurt?

I swore I'd never care again
But here I am still folding in
I watched you laugh like I was no one
You looked right past me like it's done

Should I cross the line or draw it darker?
Do I want you here, or just the danger?

My pulse says go, but my voice won't
And you just smile like you've won this game
So pull me close or let me fall
I'll burn too bright to feel it all

Break it all, just take it all
Feel it all, go fake it all
I told myself I'm not the one who hurt so bad (told myself, not the one)
If it is so easy, why does it burn?

Why does it burn?
Why does it hurt?
Why does it burn?
Why does it hurt?
