Bite my tongue, you wouldn't hear me anyway
Hold my nerve, while I wait for the fires to fade
I'm seeing every single word you don't say but I feel like I've seen it all
How come every time you ask me to stay, you're halfway gone?
If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell
I'm Wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt
And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse
I'm holding on so tight it hurts
So why are we holding on?
*turnaround is the same as intro, with the E from the end of the Chorus followed by the Asus2 *
Close my eyes, am I slowly slipping away
If I bide my time I'll get lost like a tear in the rain
How come every time you ask me to stay you're halfway gone?
If this is the easy way out, then why am I finding it hard as hell
I'm wide awake waiting for sleep to steal my doubt
And everything we had that hurts has come back to haunt us but ten times worse
I'm holding on so tight it hurts
So why are we holding on?
Why are we holding on? x4
Why I can't let you go
