PULL ME BACK

[INTRO — whispered vocal, sparse piano, distant metallic chain FX]
You pull me closer...
Then you let me go...
But I always come back.

[VERSE 1 — soft, intimate]
You found the cracks inside my heart,
You knew exactly where to start.
One step closer, then you disappear,
Still I want you standing here.

You give me freedom, let me breathe,
Then call my name and pull me underneath.
I see the game, I know your rules,
 But every time, I fall for you.

[PRE-CHORUS — rising synths, heartbeat bass]
 I know you're playing with my emotions,
Still I surrender without hesitation.
You hold the key, I know it's true,
 But I don't wanna break through.

[CHORUS ]
 Chain me up, chain me up, Then you let me go.
Pull me in, push me out, But I still want more.

You got my heart, heart, heart, And you know it won't break free.
 Let me go, let me go— Then come back and chain me.

[POST-CHORUS — rhythmic chant, chopped vocals]
Pull me back! Pull me back! I don't wanna be free.

Lock me up! Lock me up! You're the only chain I need.

[VERSE 2 — stronger beat, emotional but confident]
You turn away, I chase your shadow, You disappear, I wait tomorrow.
You give me hope, then take it away, Still I'd choose you at the end of every day.

Maybe I'm foolish, maybe I'm blind, But you're the only world inside my mind.
I know your love can make me fall, Still I'd rather have you than nothing at all.

[PRE-CHORUS — bigger, rising tension]
I see the strings around my soul, I know you're always in control.
 But if you open up that door, I'll come running back for more.

[CHORUS — maximum energy]
Chain me up, chain me up, Even if you let me go.
 Pull me in, push me out, I keep coming back for more.

You got my heart, heart, heart, And the key is in your hands.
 Let me go, let me go— I'll come running back again.

[DANCE BREAK — heavy bass, sharp percussion, vocal chops]
 Pull me back! Don't let me go! One more time! I'm yours!

[BRIDGE — stripped down, piano + emotional vocal]
 If you're gonna leave, Don't leave me empty.
 If you're gonna break my heart, Stay and break it gently.

I don't need freedom If freedom means you.
So take away the key... I still choose you.

[FINAL CHORUS — huge drums, high harmony, emotional ad-libs] Chain me up, chain me up, Even if you let me go. Pull me in, push me out, I keep coming back for more.

You got my heart, heart, heart,
And the key is in your hands.
 Let me go, let me go— I'll come running back again.

[OUTRO — whispered, fading synth] Don't set me free... Don't set me free... I don't wanna be free.
