tell me, whats it like
to feel alive?
whats it like to wake up everyday
not knowing that you have me
rotting on the inside?

im watching the trees sway
patiently waiting to see your car
pull up on my drive way

all the patience in the world couldn't **** me
because im lost in your eyes

time flies by and words are disappearing
i look into your eyes and its junior high
all over again

the weeks are growing shorter and everyday its a new month

all i can feel is your absence

im trying to find my location but i can hear your voice in the back of my head
soothing and sweet
manipulative and convincing

you've come to find me but it turns out you've just led me astray
all i want is for you to show me a way
somewhere i can go so i can forever leave

so i can have a chance to breathe

or maybe even the slightest hope
to once believe
why wont you let me leave
