See
Breathe, just breathe,
And tell me what you see;
For I can't tell what lies ahead:
You must go on before me.
I was everything
To you, I'm sorry I'm not
Anymore. Truly.
Oh
oh oh oh
Ohhh
Oh no,
It's back again!
I see you sitting there, wondering
How will you ever go on?
'Cause you can't get over that one thing
It's been with you for so long
 
You thought you could be brave enough
Thought you could stay strong
You tried but you couldn't save yourself
How did it all go so wrong?
 
I see you telling yourself to try, try
You say you're better than this
I see you break down and just cry, cry
But you don't have to do this
 
You think you're separated from My love
I tell you, nothing can do that
You think all you did is bad enough
I tell you, nothing, nothing can do that
 
Every day you wake up and say
You're going to get it right
You're going on your own strength
And it brings you down every night
 
It's getting heavier all the time
You didn't know it'd hurt this much
But you just keep saying you'll try
Even though you're giving up
 
But I see you in your pain
You can give up and know I'm here
My voice has always been saying
That I've always been near
 
You think you're separated from My love
I tell you, nothing can do that
You think all you did is bad enough
I tell you, nothing, nothing can do that
 
So when the lies tear you down
When you let them speak
Don't be afraid, I'm always around
Child, just hold onto Me
 
You think you're separated from My love
I tell you, nothing can do that
You think all you did is bad enough
I tell you, nothing, nothing can do that
 
Nothing can do that.

You said that you'd do
whatever it takes,
But all that it took
just made my heart break.
Cross my heart, I hope I'll die
I try to look you in the eye
I do not love you anymore
And I may break the oath I swore.
It cuts me deep and to the quick
To think that you had fun with it
When all the while it was my own
My heart you played with, not a stone.
You use your commas
The way a Southern woman
Puts sugar in tea.
And, yeah, you're, killing, me.
"Are windows open?"
Said he, "I'm cold."
"Only the windows,"
Said I, "of your soul."
I'm going to bed
Because nothing makes sense now
So I'll see you soon.
