Barely

I swear sometimes that I'm just sleeping,
Barely living I'm just dreaming,
Sometimes the only way to survive a nightmare is to tell yourself that you'll wake up,
Maybe you and dad will just make up, Maybe your grades will just stay up,
Maybe it won't hurt to be alive,
Hollow words for medication,
The pains still there with that frustration,
I can't give up cause you're still here,
Losing yous my greatest fear,
So I keep walking, barely moving
Heart keeps pumping, barely breathing,
Once you're gone then I'll let go,
Close my eyes I'll take it slow,
The only thing I'll feel is low,
I still love you, just so you know
