If I was braver, I would tell him to stay, tell him to hold me
Because I can't bear anymore time away from him
But im not,
So I will tell him to leave

Lover you asked me,
"How.... how much do you love me?"
Well, I would give every breath left in my body, just to make you happy
Self sacrifice
That's how much I love you

For every heartbeat I have left in my body,
I will love you
For every syllable that passes through my lips, I promise you this
I will love you
For every stutter when you leave me speechless,
Every daydream that conjures endless possibilities
For every touch and kiss
I promise you this
I will love you
For every moment shared, every love filled stare, baby I swear
I love you

I guess that's how it works with us,
You do whatever you like, tear me to shreds and watch me fall apart
But everytime you need me I will be there and I will hold you up even if it kills me

Stumbling and lost, I guess I'm paying the cost
Of being alive, but shall I survive
This searing pain, always comes back again
I feel like I'm fading, into the grey

But sometimes what doesn't **** you makes you weaker,
It takes small pieces,
Until you're left trying to put yourself back together again
And you can only hope you wont fall apart

Could it be?
This frivolous game they indulged in,
Become nothing but a mere competition
With sickening intent,
Both striving for who could be more seperate
From the other
Two lovers, cast aside emotions
For a constant play
Of cat and mouse
