The Air In Me

The Air In Me - Too Close To Touch

Are we reaching out for something

More than who we were and what we've been

And our insides cringe just like the rusty

Hinges of the chest I buried having faith in someone else

I reach for something not there

I'd die to even know that you care

But my shortness of breath says I'm halfway there

Tell me what happens next

Say I'm not the only thing that pushed you away

It's not the same anymore my hearts astray and I adore you

Say I'm not the only thing that pushed you away

No I can't change anymore you know I tried I assure you

Are we reaching out for something

More than what we've felt sink into our skin

And outside the sight of our brittle mind

Is a greater hope that on our own we won't wear thin

We won't wear thin

Say I'm not the only thing that pushed you away

It's not the same anymore my hearts astray and I adore you

Say I'm not the only thing that pushed you away

No I can't change anymore you know I tried I assure you

Well I've heard what's real takes time to heal the words that cut so deep

And every burden felt has slowly dealt me

Shaking hands it's hard to keep

That grip that's got a hold of me from dragging me down underneath

Why won't you let me

Why won't you let me breathe

Take the air out of me give it to someone more deserving

Castaways are souls to stay lives unnerving
