歌詞

I keep your jacket on my chair

Like proof you were here

Cold cup ring on the table

Still warm from the fear

You leave a bruise of kindness

Soft thumb on my jaw

I know what this is doing

Still I want it all

I tell myself, let go

Then you call, and I fold

One small touch, one small lie

And I’m back in the hold

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I want the chain you make

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I love the hurt you wake

Hold me close, let me rot

If that’s the price I pay

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I never walk away

Your name sits in my throat

Like smoke in an empty room

I wash it off each morning

It comes back by noon

I meet you at the doorway

With my hands already down

You say my soft surrender

Like it’s something to be proud

I know the shape of this

Every crack, every shift

Still I lean, still I need

What your silence gives

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I want the chain you make

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I love the hurt you wake

Hold me close, let me rot

If that’s the price I pay

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I never walk away

If I bloom, you bend me

If I leave, you pull

You’re the needle in the honey

And I drink it full

My pretty little ruin

My quiet, crooked vow

I don’t need a rescue

I need you right now

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I want the chain you make

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I love the hurt you wake

Hold me close, let me rot

If that’s the price I pay

Sweetly locked, sweetly locked

I never walk away
