Without

Girl I'm afraid that we made a mistake
Such a grave miscalculation
And furthermore, I'm not sure there's a cure
For our poor sense of communication
Don't second guess, this is all we have left
Nothing less than our full concentration
Now I will try to provide some insight
Into my side of the situation

When you text me, I miss you
And I can't continue
To live like this with you
I wish I could give you away
But I can't discard you
I've tried, it's too hard to
Though the way that we are
We get farther apart every day

This moment's long overdue, I don't mean to accuse
But it's true, I have a few reservations
How do we proceed If we've lost what we need
To recede from these repeat complications?
Baby, let's get this straight before it's really too late
I will wait until we run out of patience
Let's lose the excuses, they feel tired and used
We should do this with renewed motivation

I can remember the first time I met her
The look in her eyes told me, "Never surrender alone!"
But looks are deceiving. We struggle for meaning
I'm choking on air while she's learning to breathe on her own
When she tells me:

"If you left now it would be fine by me
I don't need to be another casualty
But if you wanna stay then you can never leave
I won't go through this for nothing
I can feel this coming on a little too strong
This could pull me down, and hold me under too long"
If I wanted to leave I would have already gone
I want to know you to no end

Can't do without you
Can't do without you
Can't do without you
Can't do without
