These days I don't know what I'm doing
I'm living but barely breathing
My lung is suffocated by the pressure around
I want to scream but can't make a sound
Why can't you see me here
Please, I'm begging you to hold me dear
I just need someone to lean on
Shoulder me and carry me through
Be the wings that help me fly
Don't just leave without saying bye
Life is just passing while I'm standing still
Like I'm held at gun point against my will
I'm falling back to old ways
Trying to relive past days
I try to stand but I keep on tripping
And everyone just seems to go on living
Can't someone help me sweep up the broken pieces
Collect them in a jar and patch up the cracks
As you fix the puzzle, sew up the tear in my heart
Cause now I'm just living a broken life without one
