Hold Me Like Truth

[Verse 1 – Pop] You say you love me, but it’s bullshit You touch me soft, then split You hold me like I’m glass But I’m the storm you let pass

[Verse 2 – Pop] I’ve been your secret, your fucking ghost The one you hide when you need a dose You kiss me like I’m just a fix But I’m the truth you couldn’t mix

[Pre-Chorus – Pop] Don’t fake it, don’t stall If you mean it, say it all If you don’t — walk away I’m not here to fucking play

[Chorus – Pop/EDM] Hold me like truth, not like a lie Not like a maybe, not like goodbye Hold me like fire you won’t let go Like I’m the story you need to know Hold me like truth — raw and real Not like a dream you’ll never feel

[Verse 3 – EDM Build-Up]
I’ve been the silence in your storm The aching space where love was born You trace my scars like they’re a map But truth don’t need your fucking trap

[Verse 4 – EDM Build-Up] I begged for words you wouldn’t say For honesty you threw away You kiss like guilt, you breathe like doubt But truth don’t whisper — it shouts

[Pre-Chorus – EDM Drop] So if you’re here, then be all in Don’t fake the love, don’t wear thin skin If you mean it, let it show If you don’t — then let me go

[Chorus – EDM Drop] Hold me like truth, not like a lie Not like a maybe, not like goodbye Hold me like fire you won’t let go Like I’m the story you need to know Hold me like truth — raw and real Not like a dream you’ll never feel

[Bridge] Hold me like truth Like you’ve got nothing left to lose Like every word Is bruised but used

Hold me like truth Like you’re bleeding through Like every scar Is part of you

Hold me like truth Like you’re not afraid To say the shit You never made

Hold me like truth Like I’m the end Of every lie You used to defend

Verse 5 I used to be the one you called Now I’m just the one who falls I used to be the light you saw Now I’m just the fatal flaw
Scarlet

Verse 6 I used to be the one who stayed Now I’m just the one who’s frayed I used to be the one who tried Now I’m just the one who lied

[Pre-Chorus – EDM Drop] So if you’re here, then be all in Don’t fake the love, don’t wear thin skin If you mean it, let it show If you don’t — then let me go

[Chorus – EDM Drop] Hold me like truth, not like a lie Not like a maybe, not like goodbye Hold me like fire you won’t let go Like I’m the story you need to know Hold me like truth — raw and real Not like a dream you’ll never feel

[Chorus – R&B Vocal Layering] Hold me like truth, not like a lie Not like a maybe, not like goodbye Hold me like fire you won’t let go Like I’m the story you need to know Hold me like truth — raw and real Not like a dream you’ll never feel

[Outro – Whispered R&B Fade] Hold me like truth… Or don’t hold me at all Don’t hold me halfway Don’t hold me soft Hold me like truth Or let me fall
