Never Let Go

Neither you nor I can say it's the right time
I've tried to find my way, but I'm falling out of line
It's not as easy as you think
I can't wish this violence away
But when I feel you close to me
There's a reason to have faith

We've been here several days, maybe we should go
We could wash this trace, though we'd be alone
I just want to keep you safe
Another route would be easier
You're still holding on to me
Can we survive the winter?

I'm still alive while I've forgotten to breathe
I'm taking a step with your fingers in between my own
What did I do to deserve you, I'll never know
I've nearly died, but you never let me go
(Hmmm)

How can I make you see this is impossible?
You stare in my eyes and I believe it's possible
I pray the screaming will end
I pray these nightmares will leave
I pray I won't have to pretend
That you mean little to me


I'm still alive while I've forgotten to breathe
I'm taking a step with your fingers in between my own
What did I do to deserve you, I'll never know
I've nearly died, but you never let me go

My pulse is all over the place
My tears are all over my face
Trying to please everyone I love
You pull me against your chest
I hear the sound I know best
I close my eyes and I'm okay


I'm still alive while I've forgotten to breathe
I'm taking a step with your fingers in between my own
What did I do to deserve you, I'll never know
I've nearly died, but you never let me go
(x2)

You hold me close and I'm not alone
You hold me close and I can go on
