To know it doesn't get any better from here,
You're the sweetest song I will ever sing,
One look you got me screaming out a tragedy,
Grabbing on my arm it's like you're tugging on my heart strings.
I don't know where you came from but here is where we lay,
Sleeping in the backyard without a roof on our heads,
Think about the times that we had way back when,
Telling stories as the rain falls then I'm bleeding on your doorstep.
So wake me up to tell me I'm not dreaming,
Cause I'm not playing when I say my heart has stopped beating,
Don't die, Don't leave me here to die,
Cause I'm alright when you hold me so please just keep on breathing.
Pull me back from the thought of when this will get rough,
You can kiss away my sorrows if you try hard enough,
Tell me how you love me by how you scream my name,
Even though the night is gone the blood still stains.
You can't understand me as I'm saving my last breath,
The saddest story told- one million years in the making,
Telling me to hold on a little longer when my shirt gets wet,
Living is barely worth it when you're floating with the dead.
So wake me up to tell me I'm not dreaming,
Cause I'm not playing when I say my heart has stopped beating,
Don't die, Don't leave me here to die,
Cause I'm alright when you hold me so please just keep on breathing.
