why am i holding onto you while you're barely gripping?
my fingertips turn pale, knuckles become red
my hands are numb from grasping so tightly
with power and passion
you're not trying near as much
it seems as if you're taking it easy
im sick of making you priority
as im made another choice
but i can't handle losing you
so i'll forget about speaking my voice
just to make certain that you won't get hurt
from my burning palms
attempting not to slip away.
