Write It Down (Your Song)

She said to me,"Baby, write a note,"
She'll stick in a box with pictures of the hearts she broke
She'll say to me, "You're the only one I know,"
So now I'm falling into letters. So now I'm giving up all hope.

And maybe she asked me sweet, "Don't make this about me,"
But the lines in my heart scream, "You have to let me,"

I don't want to break
Anymore walls down
But sometimes these pills I take
Are all I hold on
And save me, save these texts
And maybe we'll be real
I can't stop the pain
But I can write it down
Baby, baby, baby, I'll write it down.

I whispered in the dark, "I know this is so wrong,"
But in little white lies, I color all the pasts gone
I yelled it out, "I swear I didn't mean it!"
And now in this glow I'm writing you your song

And maybe she asked me sweet, "Don't make this about me,"
But the lines in my heart scream, "You have to let me,"

I don't want to break
Anymore walls down
But sometimes these pills I take
Are all I hold on
And save me, save these texts
And maybe we'll be real
I can't stop the pain
But I can write it down
Baby, baby, baby, I'll write it down.

I just don't think you'll ever read it
I just don't think you'll ever need this
But baby, this is for you, about you, to you
But baby, this is for you, about you, I need you

I don't want to break
Anymore walls down
But sometimes these pills I take
Are all I hold on
And save me, save these texts
And maybe we'll be real
I can't stop the pain
But I can write it down
Baby, baby, baby, I'll write it down.
