A Misconception Of Being Here Forever

I reach out my hand

But its distant enough

I can't grasp it

Is this the last time

You want to see me

Cuz you're just walking away

The last thing I see

Is a single tear fall

Your hand waves slowly through the air

(This search will end soon)

I'm laying on the shoreline

(Waves crash over me)

You're running through the sand (but you're too far away)

(Just watch as the tide comes and takes me in)

I'm drifting away

I'm holding my breath

The water is fighting its way into my lungs

I can't take this much longer

Just watch me drift away

You're the one who asked for this

Is it really what you want

To let me slip away

Oh please just help me out

I'm not coming back

I'm not coming back

I fall to the ground

As you run to me

But you can't be fast enough

(It's already over

I'm looking back on everything

The way you used to care)

You wouldn't have let this happen

To me

Right in front of your eyes

You wouldn't have let me slip away

If you'd only think for yourself

This search will end soon

I'm laying on the shoreline

Waves crash over me

You're running through the sand but you're too far away

Just watch as the tide comes and takes me

I'm drifting away
