missing you

The water's rising past my chin

I don't know where the leak begins I'm treading water in a

quiet room

Chasing shadows, trading in the gloom

A simple word,

a heavy sigh

And suddenly I start to cry

Like something small

can tip the scale

And leave me out here in the gale And I'm tired of

fighting,

tired of the ground

Tired of the silence,

tired of the sound

Of a voice in my head that says I won't do

Of breaking the pieces I'm trying to glue

So pull me up

or let me drift

I'm losing touch with every shift

I wish I could lose I wish I could close my eyes

and sleep

Past the water,

past the deep And I hate the damage that I leave behind

When the dark takes over my mind

I'm sorry for the things I put you through

I'm just so lost and missing you

You're sitting right

beside the bed

Not hearing all the thoughts I've bled

I hate the look inside your eyes When I try smiling through

my lies

You didn't ask to share this weight You didn't sign up for

this state Of holding hands with someone gone

Who's begging just to see the dawn

And I'm tired of fighting,

tired of the ground

Tired of the silence,

tired of the sound

Of a voice in my head

that says I won't do

Of breaking the pieces I'm trying to glue

So pull me up

or let me drift

I'm losing touch with every shift

I wish I could lose I wish I could close my eyes

and sleep Past the water,

past the deep And I hate the damage I leave behind

When the dark takes over my mind

I'm sorry for the things I put you through

I'm just so lost and missing you

They say the morning

comes around

They say there's firm and steady ground Right now the floor

is falling through

And all I want is to reach for you

To say I'm scared,

to say I'm low

And please don't let me sink below

Just let me sleep,

just hold me tight

And help me stay through just one more night

The water's high,

the air is thin Please tell me where

the light turns in
