Lyrics

For so long
I wanted to follow you
And now I'm starting over
I'm looking past you to the north
And you just stare right back at me
It's like I'm treading water
And slowly sinking down
My arms are growing weary
So tired
You can try to say it slowly
But the words won't come
I've been hollowed out
Brushed with a color unspoken inside
But I'm not holding my breath
Now you're a different shape and your colors faded
Like looking through the past would help in some way
But I'm still treading water
And slowly sinking down
You were the perfect anchor
So with you I'll drown
You forgot who you are
And it's killing me inside
You can try to say it slowly
But the words won't come
I've been hollowed out
Brushed with a color unspoken inside
I'm not holding my breath
I know I'm treading water
I'm not holding my breath
I'm not holding my breath
