[Verse 1]

Crack open these ribs

Make a home inside

Turn off all the lights

Unravel the poem

Woven in my skin

And write yourself in

[Chorus]

Tell me that you'll stay

Ooh ooh

Tell me that you'll stay

Then walk away

[Verse 2]

Trace the outline of the heart that's in your hands

Pretend to understand

Fill the air with every colour that you know

Talk of spring then bring the snow

Let me in and let me go

[Chorus]

Tell me that you'll stay

Ooh, ooh

Promise that you'll stay

Then walk away
