Believe,
I miss your taste
I miss your smell
Past mistakes brought us here

Rescue me from everything as
Everyday I sit and wait
for more bad news
Until I have nothing left to lose

Please won't you just start making some sense
The Lord doesn't make accidents
I see the worst case scenario and
It's slowly letting go

Guess I could of sent more letters
And talked more on the phone but,
The signal was fading and
The ink running out

Words look good on paper
And sound better from your mouth
But, I can barely breathe as you
Sharpen your tongue
I can't believe anything you say

I'm the fire and you're the water
I'm the canvas and you're the color
I don't forget you
Even if we're not together

Please hold me tight
I don't care if I can't breathe tonight
Forget my lungs,
With jealousy they burn
But don't leave me alone

My heart's sand
Flowing through your hourglass
But time is up, let go of all we know
As our hearts break in two

I need you now
More than yesterday
So I standby and watch
this fall apart and fade away

I watch the pieces fall but,
I can't let go
Even though
                                       It's
                                              over
and I'm on my own...
