Why do i choke up
and hold back tears?
When I say its over
Was that a lie?

Is it too hard to admit?
That there's feelings somewhere
inside lurking and hoping
to be true

But I feeling like hiding
Cover up my heart
and let no one in
I don't want to be hurt again

Sick of all these tears
And countless nights without sleep
Memories hunting my past
I don't know how to put this.

I tell myself that
it was for the best.
And know that I'll get through
But why am I speechless?

Why is it so hard to forget?
Starting to regret it all

Dove in too deep

Now I feel like im drowning
Sinking to the sea floor
Breathless and tired
Can't take this anymore

I'm not a coward
just cause I'm running away.
I'm just tired of feeling like this
Time for me to start a new day
