[Intro: Elusive]
I met this girl once, and she was so sweet
I felt warm with her, when there was no heat
But I ain't gotta fly
Cause for her I'd walk the edge of this earth, and I'd jump off with both feet
If I saw her fall, like I would do whatever
It takes, to make sure that I will be by you forever
Mistakes, I endure till we begin a new endeavor
But it breaks my heart to think of all that we've been through together..
[Verse 1: Elusive]
And how far I've come, with your a**istance
You gave me something to live for, so now I show persistence
I mean I'm motivated by it
So if I ain't gonna die, then I'm giving you my whole existence
But there's so much that I still owe
You're the only thing that's on my mind
When I'm lying here, eyes closed, half asleep, on my pillow
You pick me back up again, when I just feel low
So I will grow, and can become stronger
Cause in the end I'm gonna win, it won't be much longer
Then you can see the real me
And I will set myself free.. like sometimes, in my mind I wonder
Where it is that I wanna be
Cause if I had a choice, then honestly
I would still be exactly where I am right now
But the only difference is you'd be in front of me..
[Hook: DMB]
Now it's been so long, and I just don't know if I can hold on much longer..
As I'm being held under, and I should have been stronger..
So I sing this song to remind myself I don't need to wander..
But it's drowned out by thunder, I guess I should have been stronger..
[Verse 2: DMB]
Yes, please, take me to that place
I can't stand another moment in this race
That's why I fill myself with grace, cause I knew that from the start
That it was too dark to resume the pace
I a**umed your face, would never fade away
I'm sorry but that is not all I have to say today
You waited while I tried find a way to save the day
While I wasted time just trying to find a safer way
Now a razor blade, won't make the cut
And the burns over my body just don't ache enough
To take my mind off you
So I might just do one last thing and start saving up
I ain't safe enough, without you with me
If I had one chance to get you back, I'd do it swiftly
Even if I have to pay the price
Every second with you I could never sacrifice..
[Hook]
[Bridge: Elusive]
I've felt love once, and it was so great
There's nothing stronger than the presence of a soul mate
But I must of been wrong
Cause now I ain't strong enough, for me keep to holding up my own weight
But if I know fate, then one day I will be
Cause when I'm blinded by the light, I feel I can still see
Even if it's just a dream, memories of you and me
Instead of leaving, I wish you'd of k**ed me..
[Verse 3: Elusive]
But the pain, makes us grow strong
I'll see you later - like this cold and lonely road - I mean it's, so long
And I don't know if I can hold on
Much longer - cause since then, it's like we've both gone
But the memories will never fade
And I know I don't really need to be afraid
I feel stronger, I want you to know I'm still breathing
Cause I ain't leaving till this debt is paid..
And I've given back, everything you've given me
But when it's all gone, I hope you've forgiven me
I hope that struck a chord
Cause I would rather slit my throat, than just be another note in your symphony
But I ain't letting that, set the tone
I'mma use this set back as a stepping stone
I mean I'm moving on, though I ain't feeling strong
So when it's said and done, I'd rather just be left alone..
[Hook]
