Holding on (To Nothing)
Remember when I promised you
That I'd always be there
And you said you'd be there too?
Then when the times of struggle came
I was there for you
But you wouldn't do the same
You could pick me up when I wanted to die
You could make me laugh when I cried
You could make the chaos subside
Peace personified
But now...
It's just not worth it anymore
I'm not sure what I'm still waiting for
'Cause everything between you and me
Will never be what I want it to be
It just keeps dragging me along
Through the dirt when you're already gone
I wanna let go but it's so frightening
To realize you're holding on to nothing
Remember secrets that we shared
When I never doubted if you cared?
But you've poisoned this with all your lies
Now I don't know who I see
When I look into your eyes
You could pick me up when I wanted to die
You could make me laugh when I cried
You could make the chaos subside
Peace personified
But now...
It's just not worth it anymore
I'm not sure what I'm still waiting for
'Cause everything between you and me
Will never be what I want it to be
It just keeps dragging me along
Through the dirt when you're already gone
I wanna let go but it's so frightening
To realize you're holding on to nothing
You've made your decisions
Created your divisions
So many times
You've lied to me
I know I'll never trust you
You've taught me not to believe
From who you used to be
You now have strayed so far
I loved who you once were
I don't know who you are
So it's just not worth it anymore
I'm not sure what I'm still waiting for
'Cause everything between you and me
Will never be what I want it to be
It just keeps dragging me along
Through the dirt when you're already gone
I wanna let go but it's so frightening
To realize you're holding on to nothing
It's just not worth it anymore
I don't know why I didn't see it before
But this masochistic tendency
Won't let me desist from hurting me
You drag me under once again
This smiling mask is wearing thin
I wonder how long I can stay
Holding on to what has rotted away
I don't know who you are
It's just not worth it anymore...
That I'd always be there
And you said you'd be there too?
Then when the times of struggle came
I was there for you
But you wouldn't do the same
You could pick me up when I wanted to die
You could make me laugh when I cried
You could make the chaos subside
Peace personified
But now...
It's just not worth it anymore
I'm not sure what I'm still waiting for
'Cause everything between you and me
Will never be what I want it to be
It just keeps dragging me along
Through the dirt when you're already gone
I wanna let go but it's so frightening
To realize you're holding on to nothing
Remember secrets that we shared
When I never doubted if you cared?
But you've poisoned this with all your lies
Now I don't know who I see
When I look into your eyes
You could pick me up when I wanted to die
You could make me laugh when I cried
You could make the chaos subside
Peace personified
But now...
It's just not worth it anymore
I'm not sure what I'm still waiting for
'Cause everything between you and me
Will never be what I want it to be
It just keeps dragging me along
Through the dirt when you're already gone
I wanna let go but it's so frightening
To realize you're holding on to nothing
You've made your decisions
Created your divisions
So many times
You've lied to me
I know I'll never trust you
You've taught me not to believe
From who you used to be
You now have strayed so far
I loved who you once were
I don't know who you are
So it's just not worth it anymore
I'm not sure what I'm still waiting for
'Cause everything between you and me
Will never be what I want it to be
It just keeps dragging me along
Through the dirt when you're already gone
I wanna let go but it's so frightening
To realize you're holding on to nothing
It's just not worth it anymore
I don't know why I didn't see it before
But this masochistic tendency
Won't let me desist from hurting me
You drag me under once again
This smiling mask is wearing thin
I wonder how long I can stay
Holding on to what has rotted away
I don't know who you are
It's just not worth it anymore...
