Thought I was gonna turn my life into something great
Wanted to be loved
Take a deep breath and I Wait
I wanted to be loved
I wanted to be great
I wanted to be your everything and so much more
I wanted to be the man you were always looking for
The one you could not live with out
Forever
Together we would figure it out
I held my breath
Took your hand
Gave you all that I am
Believed in greatness
Now I can’t believe how sour the taste is
How could you do this to my heart?
Waste this
I thought we had something special
Something grand
I thought we spoke a language only lovers could understand though her we are
This side of the bed seems so far
I wake up every day not knowing who we are or how I got these scars
We had forever in our hands
Now you’re just a somebody I do not understand
I held my breath
Thought I found love
A best friend
In the end
I exhaled
