lyrics

So begins my state of brokenness and I cant stay here long
Tried my best to keep my mind from all these selfish wicked thoughts
You offered me your hand but truthfully I think you’ve done enough
Isn’t there any stable ground cus recovery has just been rough

So let me explain my latest hell
Is it just how I thought it would be
I need more heartlessness to have the perfect mix
The denial and the disrespect I’ve seen

I’m on the verge of a breakdown
It’s all I can do not to let it go
Stuck in a free-fall and I cant see the end
Of my darkest place
Left to fend for myself
Where has the light of my life gone?

Seemed so simple for you
Tell me was I really all that good
Saw a lot of selfishness from you
While I did all I could
All the plans to keep this going
Had almost no effect
And the empty reassurances
Seemed to take me over the edge

Again and again I tried to move on
But it seemed like there’s no place to go
Keep running in circles in my search for answers
And it seems as if I’ll never really know

I’m on the verge of a breakdown
It’s all I can do not to let it go
Stuck in a free-fall and I cant see the end
Of my darkest place
Left to fend for myself
Where has the light of my life gone?

I would stand on the steps
With a hole in my chest
Hoping you could see
That you’re breaking my heart
So please play your part
And rescue me
I could never let go of this love I have found
Tell me why does it have to go

I’m on the verge of a breakdown
It’s all I can do not to let it go
Stuck in a free-fall and I cant see the end
Of my darkest place
Left to fend for myself
Where has the light of my life gone?
