Hold My Breath

I've been broken baby, I have been used.

Taken back and forth, left so confused.

Waiting for that moment I can feel okay,

but I wont hold my breath waiting for the day.



Taking my chances, hoping for a change,

but it always ends the same.

I always find myself broken,

I'm the one left with all the pain.



Where is the hope when I fall back into my old ways?

For a while I find hope but it eventually strays.

What is the use in breathing when the pain never goes away?

No matter how I try to fix the things that are damaged this way.



Sun shine fades into dark clouds,

because I am left alone now.

Oceans turn to ice because the world turned so cold

The moment your love walked out the door.



Once so captivating, shining so bright

my eyes have become so empty tonight.

Lost and broken and all alone

There is no love where I live, it should not be called a home.



I was left damaged, torn apart.

A million scars scratched into my heart.

I am still waiting for that better day,

but I won't hold my breath waiting for it to come my way.
