Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You talk like you survived a war
Laugh it off
Say "that's just life"
You sip slow
Change the subject
Turn hurt into a clever line
You say
"I don't need saving"
Smile sharp
But your hands shake
Every story got an exit
You leave out how your heart breaks
[Chorus]
I didn't wanna change the woman you became
I just wanna hold the girl who had to hide her pain
You don't gotta be the strong one every day
Let the little girl inside you
Know she's finally safe
I didn't wanna fix you
Tell you who to be
I only wanna give that kid a place to sleep
You don't gotta be the brave one when you bleed
Let the little girl inside you
Fall apart with me
[Verse 2]
You joke about your childhood
Like it's some distant show
Say
"it made me who I am"
But I hear what you don't say out loud
You flinch when doors slam lightly
You freeze when voices climb
You pretend you didn't notice
But I see the way you leave your body behind
[Chorus]
I didn't wanna change the woman you became
I just wanna hold the girl who had to hide her pain
You don't gotta be the strong one every day
Let the little girl inside you
Know she's finally safe
I didn't wanna fix you
Tell you who to be
I only wanna give that kid a place to sleep
You don't gotta be the brave one when you bleed
Let the little girl inside you
Fall apart with me
[Bridge]
Let your mascara run
On the front seat
In my hands (yeah)
Say the things you swallowed young
Cuss their names out if you can
If you shake
Then shake
If you break
Then break (break)
I'll be right here
Right here
When the past starts to quake
[Chorus]
I didn't wanna change the woman you became
I just wanna hold the girl who had to hide her pain
You don't gotta be the strong one every day
Let the little girl inside you
Know she's finally safe
I didn't wanna fix you
Tell you who to be
I only wanna give that kid a place to sleep (come to me)
You don't gotta be the brave one when you bleed
Let the little girl inside you
Let her rest with me
You talk like you survived a war
Laugh it off
Say "that's just life"
You sip slow
Change the subject
Turn hurt into a clever line
You say
"I don't need saving"
Smile sharp
But your hands shake
Every story got an exit
You leave out how your heart breaks
[Chorus]
I didn't wanna change the woman you became
I just wanna hold the girl who had to hide her pain
You don't gotta be the strong one every day
Let the little girl inside you
Know she's finally safe
I didn't wanna fix you
Tell you who to be
I only wanna give that kid a place to sleep
You don't gotta be the brave one when you bleed
Let the little girl inside you
Fall apart with me
[Verse 2]
You joke about your childhood
Like it's some distant show

But I hear what you don't say out loud

But I see the way you leave your body behind
[Chorus]
I didn't wanna change the woman you became
I just wanna hold the girl who had to hide her pain
You don't gotta be the strong one every day
Let the little girl inside you
Know she's finally safe
I didn't wanna fix you
Tell you who to be
I only wanna give that kid a place to sleep
You don't gotta be the brave one when you bleed
Let the little girl inside you
Fall apart with me

You don't gotta be the brave one when you bleed
Let the little girl inside you
Let her rest with me
Style of Music
Moody alternative R&B with male vocals over sparse, detuned synth pads and distant vocal chops; woozy trap drums with rimshots, subby 808 swells, and half-time swing. Verses stay close and confessional, almost whispered; hook blooms with stacked harmonies, pitched-down ad-libs, and a simple, haunting top-line. Reverb-drenched guitar textures drift in on the bridge for a soft, late-night climax, then everything drops to vocal and 808 for the final chorus., male vocals, alternative r&b
