[Verse 1]
I can't say I love
‘Cause the word just dries on my tongue
You look at me like an answer
I’m a question coming undone
You pour your heart in the silence
I sip my drink, try to nod
You’re waiting on a confession
I’m just staring at the clock

[Pre-Chorus]
You say, “Tell me what you’re feeling”
I’m scanning every ceiling
If there’s something in me, it’s hidden deep
Are you sure you wanna see it?
‘Cause if I peel it back and mean it
You might wish I’d stayed asleep

[Chorus]
I can’t say I love, ’cause I don’t feel it
I only feel that I don’t feel absolutely nothing
Yeah, I know that’s cold, but it’s the realest
My heart’s a quiet room, and every echo means you’re coming
I can’t say I love, I’d just fake it
You deserve a fire, I’m a vacant little planet
I can’t say I love, I won’t break it
So I just keep my mouth shut, let the silence panic (oh)

[Verse 2]
You trace a path on my shoulder
Like you’re drawing home on my skin
I wish my pulse would answer
But it’s stuck on “maybe” again
You talk about your tomorrows
I’m stuck in yesterday’s blur
You’re building something solid
I’m still guessing what I’m worth

[Pre-Chorus]
You say, “Tell me what you’re needing”
I’m trying to start believing
There’s a switch somewhere I just can’t reach
If there’s warmth in me, it’s freezing
And the truth keeps on repeating
Every time you’re in my reach

[Chorus]
I can’t say I love, ’cause I don’t feel it
I only feel that I don’t feel absolutely nothing
Yeah, I know that’s cold, but it’s the realest
My heart’s a quiet room, and every echo means you’re coming
I can’t say I love, I’d just fake it
You deserve a fire, I’m a vacant little planet
I can’t say I love, I won’t break it
So I just keep my mouth shut, let the silence panic

[Bridge]
What if this is how I’m wired?
All these empty blinking lights
You’re standing there, so tired
Still hoping one might shine
If I could borrow your heartbeat
I’d give it back in time
But all I’ve got to offer
Is a hollow little line

[Chorus]
I can’t say I love, ’cause I don’t feel it
I only feel that I don’t feel absolutely nothing
Yeah, I know that’s cold, but it’s the realest
My heart’s a quiet room, and every echo means you’re coming
I can’t say I love, I’d just fake it
You deserve a fire, I’m a vacant little planet
I can’t say I love, I won’t break it
So I just keep my mouth shut, let the silence panic (oh-oh)
I can’t say I love, I won’t fake it
You deserve a fire, I’m a vacant little planet
