Help me, it?s happening again.
I wake up gasping for air.
I?m reaching for something
That?s no longer there.

Dreaming of pathways back to then.
Knowing that it will never be.
And it?s suffocating me.
If I could just breathe,
All I need to do
Is simply exhale
And let go of you.

But I don?t dare breathe
Instead I sink down
I hold tight to you
And let myself drown.

Catch me, I?m sinking far too fast.
Pulled by a darkness deep inside
And I surrender to the tide.

If I could just breathe,
All I need to do
Is simply exhale
And let go of you.

But I don?t dare breathe
Instead I sink down
I hold tight to you
And let myself drown.

The scars fade away, and the bruises all heal.
I hang on to the hurt cause I can?t help but feel
The pain is the only proof that you were real.

Hold me, as I fall through the void.
Wrapped up in its empty embrace.
Alone with my memories,
And infinite space.
Dreams of something I destroyed.
Dreams that I know cannot come true.
Dreams of a lifetime with you.

If I can just breathe,
Then I can move on.
I?ll simply exhale
And you?ll be gone.

But I cannot breathe.
I?ll never let go.
The pain is the only thing I know?
