Broken Concrete

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You left your jacket on the radiator Still smells like rain and cheap gasoline I found the note beneath the elevator Three crooked words and a place you’d never been [Pre-Chorus] I kept the key inside my mouth So I could taste the way out [Chorus] If you’re running, run toward me Past the houses leaning in I’ve got both hands on the doorway I won’t let the dark get in We were cut from broken concrete But we learned to breathe through dust If the whole thing falls beneath us Hold my wrist and call it trust [Verse 2] Your brother’s car was idling by the corner Blue smoke curling through the winter trees You said the world would only make us smaller So we drew a bigger one across our knees [Pre-Chorus] I kept the key inside my mouth Now I’m spitting the lock out [Chorus] If you’re running, run toward me Past the houses leaning in I’ve got both hands on the doorway I won’t let the dark get in We were cut from broken concrete But we learned to breathe through dust If the whole thing falls beneath us Hold my wrist and call it trust [Bridge] No more waiting in the stairwell No more counting every sound We can leave before the ceiling Turns our names into the ground Say it once and say it loudly Let the dead-end hear us choose I would rather lose the map now Than be safe and never move [Final Chorus] If you’re running, run toward me Past the houses leaning in I’ve got both hands on the doorway I won’t let the dark get in We were cut from broken concrete But we learned to breathe through dust If the whole thing falls beneath us Hold my wrist and call it trust [Outro] Hold my wrist and call it trust Hold my wrist and call it trust
