What's the point in trying

I just fall behind

Spend minutes just to pay

For bleary eyes

Wouldn't you rather die than

Be on my mind

It hurts my head to think

About you dead

But I do it all the time

I could be a soul to keep

Or I could keep on living soullessly

I could be a soul to keep

Or I could keep on living soullessly

Drawing all the curtains

To hide from ghosts

That whisper 'bout the things

We're scared of most

Chain link fences make us feel safe

From shady parts of everything

That I've made real to me

You screamed: Holy shit

The wind swept you off your feet

It sure as hell wasn't me

I swear to God it was just

Two nights, a cloud of smoke

Exhaled from my still choking lungs

I couldn't move

I couldn't see

That you're the breath

I shouldn't breathe

Shallow breath breathes

Air so heavy

I went down to the bottom of the river

Plant myself in a watery grave

'Cause when I'm down I can't see the surface

Just unknowns and answers I can't see

So I let go of your tiny little fingers

Just to say that I couldn't be saved

'Cause when I'm gone I won't forget a single

Bit of all those long-gone memories

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own

Wait, don't go

I'll hold you on my own
