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

Show me how to breathe
or tell me you'll never leave
Just know that I'm here waiting

Waiting for you to tell me
that the love I gave to you
meant something
because the taste of your
breath still lingers and I
can still almost taste the
words coming out of your mouth

"...then take me."

Constantly wearing your sweaters
Hoping to hear you knocking at my door
Constantly breathing in your scent that lingers because in my mind I won't have to fear
I'll see you soon
