Take A Breath

Take A Breath

Just take a breath and finally say goodbye
Let me go don’t look me in the eye
Tell me that you’ll finally set me free
And snap this tethered string from you to me

Just take a breath and watch me walk away
You never heard the things my heart would say
You never listened to my soul that prayed
Your gaze is just a thinly veiled charade

Just take a breath and time to run and hide
Follow these bright headlights through the night
These lights that show how brightly I can see
The path I need to run away and leave

Just take a breath again I’m here alone
This lonely sound proof room that is my home
I’m shackled and my meat is worn to bone
But I know I can’t get hurt here on my own
