I told myself I was done this time,
said I had finally reached my line.
But your voice slipped back into my night,
and I forgot every reason I tried.
I know your love isn't safe for me,
still I return so willingly.
It breaks me down, it pulls me in,
and somehow I begin again.
You leave me hollow, then make me whole,
like you've got hands around my soul.
I swear I hate the shape you take—
but I still come back for what you break.
And I need it again, though it hurts the same,
I need it again, though I know your name
is just another way to fall—
and I don't stop at all.
