I'll sing you to sleep
One last time
While you're still alive
And I hear you breathing
I'll kiss you goodbye
One last time
While you're still alive
Before I feel you leaving
I want to hold your hand
While you slip away
Before the start of the day
While I still believe in life
And all it's beautiful colors
Did it hurt when you left me alone?
I don't want to go home
I don't want to stay out
I don't wanna be alive
How are you gone and I've survived?
You were my air
You were always there
When I was sick
When you were tired
We were both so blind
To what the future held for me
I guess I couldn't see
Myself, without you
Being there
You had to go
This I know
But it still burns
In my soul
That you're gone
It just feels so wrong
I tried my best
Nothing less for you
I did what I could do
But the voices in your head
They got the best of what I said
They took you
On the nights that you bled
From your wrists
In my head
Since I couldn't see you
Or kiss you goodnight
They still linger
In my eyes
In the mirror
You're still here
Please don't leave me alone
Let me breathe you in
One more time
Let me do it again
Tell you to live
When you wanted to die
Then I started to cry
And you loved me enough to stay
I miss things being that way
When you still cared
Enough to be there
Just one more night

*Please Just Give Me One More Night
