Lyrics
[Verse 1] I been up too late Staring at the page Names in the ashtray Days in a gray frame Mama said breathe slow I said, "I know" Still my chest folds up When the rent come due Pocket full of plans Heart full of rain I keep folding pain Like a knife in a sleeve You said don't disappear I said I'm right here But I move like smoke When the whole room leans [Pre-Chorus] If I break, I break in silence If I run, don't pull me back I been learning how to hold this Without losing what I have [Chorus] Don't let me slip through smoke Don't let me slip through smoke Hold me when I'm numb Hold me when I'm close Don't let me slip through smoke Don't let me slip through smoke If I call your name Baby, don't let go [Verse 2] Cold water on my face Trying to shake the doubt Gold chain on the sink Still I feel broke down Seen love come and go Like a door cracked wide Seen friends turn ghosts When the bills stacked high I don't need a throne I just need a room Where my words land soft And the morning moves You can keep the crown I don't need the shine Just a hand on mine When the room goes blind [Pre-Chorus] If I break, I break in silence If I run, don't pull me back I been learning how to hold this Without losing what I have [Chorus] Don't let me slip through smoke Don't let me slip through smoke Hold me when I'm numb Hold me when I'm close Don't let me slip through smoke Don't let me slip through smoke If I call your name Baby, don't let go [Bridge] [Half-time] If I go quiet, stay If I go wild, stay I don't need saving I need somebody who stays One more breath One more night Keep my feet on the floor Keep me in your sight [Final Chorus] Don't let me slip through smoke Don't let me slip through smoke Hold me when I'm numb Hold me when I'm close Don't let me slip through smoke Don't let me slip through smoke If I call your name Baby, don't let go Don't let me slip through smoke Don't let me slip through smoke Hold me when I'm numb Hold me when I'm close
