Bite my tongue you wouldn't hear me anyway

Hold my nerve while I wait for the fires to fade

I'm seeing every single word you don't say

But I feel like I've seen it all

How come every time you ask me to stay

You're halfway gone

If this is the easy way out

Then why am I finding it hard as hell

I'm wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubts

And everything we had that hurts

Has come back to haunt us but ten times worse

I'm holding on so tight it hurts

So why are we holding on

Close my eyes

Am I slowly slipping away

If I bide my time

I'll get lost like a tear in the rain

How come every time you ask me to stay

You're halfway gone

If this is the easy way out

Then why am I finding it hard as hell

I'm wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubts

Everything we had that hurts

Has come back to haunt us but ten times worse

I'm holding on so tight it hurts

So why are we holding on

Why are we holding on

Why are we holding on

Why are we holding on

Why are we holding on

If this is the easy way out

Then why am I finding it hard as hell

I'm wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubts

Everything we had that hurts

Has come back to haunt us but ten times worse

I'm holding on so tight it hurts

It's why I can't let you go
