lyrics
The tide has been pushing, the waves have been crashing on me. I can't breathe. Why can't I scream out the words that are trapped and burning inside of my head? These hands have come to terms with that there's nothing left to hold on to. One last push to get me through this (I just can't push through this without you).
I have been taught to never let go and still I fight for one last breath.
I'm broken left stranded and I can't breathe.
These rocks are caving in, I'm losing my grip. Forever falling, I'm always falling and I'm losing touch with the world. It's all on me to push for a new beginning. Why am I wasting time bridging connections that have been lost?
Lost in time, I am forever lost in my mind.
These nights have been stressful, I shouldn't be stressing over this. Follow your heart for it will be your guide when it all falls apart.
And this comes straight from the heart; I swear I mean this to help you. You've lost your faith in me, you've lost your faith in us.
This is such a sad state of affairs when it all falls apart. The person that meant so much has gone and turned his back on us. Why do I let this affect where I stand? Because in the end it's always been you.
