Chaos In My Mind

a little bit longer

If I had known,
I would've held on a little bit longer, given you one more last kiss,
but then you said maybe we should end this.

You don't know, you're sorry.
It feels like gravity has gone.
No arms to catch me, no heart to help,
nothing left, but still I'm holding on.

I've known you for ten years now,
a time that feels so long.
After all that we have been through,
I didn't expect this to go so wrong.

I thought we had more time,
I didn't think it would end so fast.
But every second pushed you to the edge,
'cause we were never meant to last.

I know you will find someone better,
but right now I'm all alone.
Your scent still stays, not yet all gone,
but you're away, I'm on my own.

I hold close what's left of you,
and I'm not going to give it back.
It catches my tear, makes you feel near,
and helps me find my way, even after losing track.

We both made some mistakes,
That's something I won't deny.
But this, between us, was no mistake,
and pretending would be a lie.

If I had known,
this was to end tonight,
I would've hugged you, a little bit stronger,
inhaled you, a little bit deeper,
and held on a little bit longer.
