For Me

So you think that you could hold on
While I'm struggling to breathe
So you think that I could move on
Even if I want to leave

I can't swim in molasses
Don't think you can swim at all
Think it's time to put on glasses
And pull back the shawl

I have locked my heart away and
Tossed aside the key
I have torn myself apart
But don't do that for me

I have stayed up through the morning
Wondering where you are
It takes a whole lot of resistance
Shouting from afar

I can't sleep with a phantom
Don't think I can sleep at all
I'll choose a chamber now at random
Some excitement before the fall

I have locked my heart away and
Tossed aside the key
I have torn myself apart
But don't do that for me

Think I've thrown away my future
Think I've gambled all my cards
Think I've flown off the handle
Tell me how to restart

I have locked my heart away and
Tossed aside the key
I have torn myself apart
But don't do that for me

I have lost my only hope
And buried it in the ground
I have gotten so misguided
Where can I be found
