Its been hard to breath for the longest time
I just wanted something I could see as mineMy only mistake was thinking it could be you
Even through all the things I saw you do
I believed in you even when I shouldn't have
I thought that the pain made you braveI used to think you were perfect
But I guess that was just a chemical defect
I gave you everything
And all you gave me was nothing
I ran when you called
But you always left me in the coldAnd though everything is over
You still hold all the power
Your phantom hovers over me like a shadow
And i don't know how to let go
I had to remind myself what you've done
That you're goneEverything changed when you left
The way I saw the morning
The way everything seemed to be darkening
The world grew cold
And I had no Choice but to foldNow everyone is you
Everything is about you
I can't trust, I can't hope
What have I done...I thought you'd always be there
That I didn't have to fear
But that's just it, you were the horror
That was waiting around the cornerI desperately wanted you to be the thing that kept me together
You told me it was going to get better
But I should've known anything that easy would be a lie
I just which I had a chance to say goodbye
Before you turned my world upside down
