Slip Away

You asked me to pay for the space that I spent in your mind
I packed up my bags, I knew it was time
Evicted from the home I once called my own
Where we'd lie under the stars
Trace our past scars
Did I push you too far?
Maybe I'm better alone

Now I'm caught between the devil and the deep sea
'Cause I know I'm no longer your priority
And it hurts because I know you can't see me
Slip away, slip away, slip away
And I'm trying, I'm trying
I can't breathe
Now I'm losing my grip
I'm losing sleep
All I lost, yeah I lost
Did I lose me?
Did I slip away?
Slip away, slip away

Whispers in the dark
Sneaking in the park on borrowed time
Careful as you go
Don't let anybody know you're mine
If my name was said
Would you pretend you've never heard it
But oh, on the other side of the door
You say my name like no one else has ever said it before

Now I'm caught between the devil and the deep sea
'Cause I know I'm no longer your priority
And it hurts because I know you can't see me
Slip away, slip away, slip away
And I'm trying, I'm trying
I can't breathe
Now I'm losing my grip
I'm losing sleep
All I lost, yeah I lost
Did I lose me?
Did I slip away?
Slip away, slip away

Today we say our last goodbye
'Cause I can't chase you into the sky
And when your tears evaporate like butterflies
Will you still see me when you close your eyes?
I do all the time

Now I'm caught between the devil and the deep sea
'Cause I know I'm no longer your priority
It hurts because I know you didn't see me
Slip away, slip away, slip away
And I'm trying, I'm trying
I can't breathe
Lost more than my grip
Lost my mind and sleep
No, no one cares for the losing team
So I slip away
Slip away, slip away
