verse 1
you walk in like a rerun scene
same cold hands, same in-between
say my name like it’s nothing new
like i’m just someone you fall into
i know that look, i know that line
you pull me close, then redefine
what we are when morning comes
yeah i’ve been here more than once
pre-chorus
i should leave
i should know better by now
but you breathe
and i forget how
chorus
i’ve seen this before
you wanting me more
at 2 in the night
then less in the light
i’ve seen this before
you at my door
like i’m who you need
but never to keep
verse 2
you touch me like it’s déjà vu
like every girl was almost you
but i’m not them, i never was
still i stay just because
you say “this time it’s different now”
yeah you always say it loud
but your silence says the truth
i’m just something you pass through
pre-chorus
i should leave
i should finally let go
but you look at me slow
chorus
i’ve seen this before
you wanting me more
at 2 in the night
then less in the light
i’ve seen this before
you at my door
like i’m who you need
but never to keep
bridge
maybe i like how it breaks
maybe i need the mistake
maybe i stay for the fall
knowing you won’t stay at all
final chorus (stripped)
i’ve seen this before
you wanting me more
just not when it’s real
just not when i feel
