From the recording If It Ever Was, It Isn't Now
Lyrics
I tried so hard to be you that I lost it
I held so long on the rope I'm exhausted
I never needed a reason to fall through
I'm holding onto a match and I can't explain
Now I'm cast out alone over choices
I had to make when my heart heard two voices
It doesn't matter if your by my side
Cause I'm ready to rise, overcome, and deny these
Chains wrapped around me
Held so tight I can't breathe
Held down but not giving in
Back and forth again
Left with memories
Of what I lost is still staring back at me
It's not enough to say
That I'm changing, I'm not gonna stay
In the bed that we made everyday
Day after day we relive these
Moments that led to unravel
Chains wrapped around me
Held so tight I can't breathe
Held down but not giving in
Back and forth again
Left with memories
Of what I lost is still staring back at me
It's not enough to say
That I'm changing, I'm not gonna stay
In the bed that we made everyday
I'm not gonna stay
In the bed that we made everyday
[Breathing but still starved for air]
I'm holding to something that's no longer there
[I'm holding to something that's no longer there]
Breathing but still starved for air
[Breathing but still starved for air]
I'm holding to something that's no longer there
[I'm holding to something that's no longer there]
