To Live a Life

I wrote you a letter to make myself feel better To redeem some part of me I thought I had lost And we were a lost 'cause Long before we fell apart, 'cause honey, I was too eager And you were too smart And I look for you in this empty room You're a phone call away, I'm in the inner state And I've been drinking cheap wine just to pass the time I'm falling behind, and it doesn't matter who you are to me I'm just like my mother, we both love to run Chasing possible things or unreachable dreams Lie awake in the night, thinking this can't be right But there is no other way to live a life alone I'm alone now Then suddenly, we wake from this dream that we have made It's this you're, let once in there, it slowly fades I'm raising in to nothing a-along miles away I know it now for my own sake that I cannot stay
