I lie awake
When will you take my heart?
I’m bleeding inside
From all that I hide away
I’m letting it go
You wanted to know how I felt
I try to be strong
But tell me the world is wrong again
I’ve been lost in tragedy
What will it take for me to be
Just one step closer to you?
Just when I felt incomplete
I fall and admit defeat
I’m tired of choosing retreat
And innocence calls
Why won’t it fall on me
In a subtle display
I ask if I may follow
To a place far below
Cause I just don’t know who I am
Or what I’ve become
Am I just somebody else
I’ve been lost in tragedy
What will it take for me to be
Just one step closer to you
Just when I felt incomplete
I fall and admit defeat
I’m tired of choosing retreat
Cause I fall away
Why I continue to feel this way
Rewind all my actions and then press play
No wonder I feel so far from you
Feel my beating heart
And watch as I gradually fall apart
I do it so well it’s a work of art
I guess now I know how much I really need you
I just want to be closer to you
