Reasons to Live

These teardrops must be tiny shards of glass

My eyes, they must be bleeding

Why is there such beauty in this misery?

I don't want to be okay without you

Trying to look for the silver lining makes me feel sick

Every breath reminds me I'm dead inside

Why can't this broken heart kill me?

Everything means nothing without you



These teardrops must be tiny shards of glass

(They drip down, fall, and stab my heart)

My eyes, they must be bleeding

(So full of glass, so full of blood)

Why is there such beauty in this misery?

(I deserve to cry, I deserve to bleed)

I don't want to be okay without you

(I'll never be okay without you)

Trying to look for the silver lining makes me feel sick

(I'd rather have only you)

Every breath reminds me I'm dead inside

(The air tastes foul)

Why can't this broken heart kill me?

(I deserve to live in suffering)

Everything means nothing without you

(I'm nothing without you)
