Before It Sinks In (Halfway Point)

Suspended in the air

I hear myself breathing

Hanging by a thread

My heart is barely beating

I haven't fallen yet

But I feel it coming

Tell me, would it be too much to ask

If you break it to me gently

That I'm waking the next day without you beside me

And who I hold on to today

Tomorrow will just be a memory

And that I would look back at all of this

And wonder why I stayed in here

Just to watch you disappear

So I breathe and let it go

How do I breathe and let you go?

Before it's too late

I'll take a step away

I know one word will make me go

Rushing back to you

So I'll just shut my eyes

Forget that you were mine

How do you go from making one your home

And then just letting it all go?

Let me take it in

Before it sinks in

Far beyond my reach

Is the future you promised

Now what I never even have

I have every reason to miss and I

Don't know where I could find the strength to let you go

When the only love I've come to know

Packed his bags and left me alone

You found another home

So before it's too late

I'll take a step away

I know one word will make me go

Rushing back to you

I'll just shut my eyes

Forget that you were mine

How do you go from making one your home

And then just letting it all go?

Let me take it in

Before it sinks in

Go, go

Before I let you go

Let me hold you close

One last time and I'll go

Before I let you go

Let me hold you close

One last time and I'll go

So before it's too late

I'll take a step away

I know one word will make me go

Rushing back to you

I'll just shut my eyes

Forget that you were mine

How do you go from making one your home

And then just letting it all go?

Let me take it in

Before it sinks in
