Don't Come Closer
by Evechon Music · Dark Pop
An ex walks back in like nothing happened, and every softened word feels like a trap. "Don't Come Closer" lives on that razor's edge of holding the line in the dark — still feeling the pull, but refusing to let one touch undo you tonight.
Lyrics
Verse 1
You walk in like nothing happened
Like we didn’t end that way
You say my name a little softer
Like softness makes it safe
You know exactly where to stand
You know how close is close enough
You always make a bad idea
Feel like unfinished love
Pre-Chorus
I know that look
I know that pull
I know how fast
I lose the rule
Chorus
Don’t come closer
I know what happens next
You touch my hand
And I forget the rest
Don’t come closer
Don’t make this hard again
We’re good at wanting
Bad at where it ends
I still feel it
That doesn’t make it right
Don’t come closer
Not tonight
Verse 2
You ask if I still miss you
Like you don’t know the truth
You say we had something different
We had something we couldn’t use
Every time we start again
We call the damage chemistry
Then act surprised when morning comes
And neither one can breathe
Pre-Chorus
I know that look
I know that pull
I know how fast
I lose the rule
Chorus
Don’t come closer
I know what happens next
You touch my hand
And I forget the rest
Don’t come closer
Don’t make this hard again
We’re good at wanting
Bad at where it ends
I still feel it
That doesn’t make it right
Don’t come closer
Not tonight
Bridge
Maybe in another life
We would have learned to stay
Maybe with another heart
You would have loved a better way
But wanting you is easy
Living with you was not
And I won’t call it destiny
Just because it burns hot
Final Chorus
Don’t come closer
I know what happens next
You touch my hand
And I forget the rest
Don’t come closer
Don’t make this hard again
We’re good at wanting
Bad at where it ends
I still feel it
That doesn’t make it right
Don’t come closer
Not tonight
Outro
I still feel it
Not tonight
