By Your Side - Awaken I Am

Well, what’s left of me?

As I lay there silent with a blank stare

I forget to breathe

Now I’m grinding my teeth and I can’t sleep

Overthinking and feeling bitter

As all of my patience slowly wears thinner

You’ve taken the best of me

Now I lay here fighting all your fake fears

And I hate what’s left, but you know I can’t let go

And I hate what’s left, but you know I can’t let go

You do this every time

Now there’s no one by your side

But it’s your fault when you fall for your own lies

And you make your issues mine

You’ve changed far from what you were

And I gave everything I could

Now we’ve both got problems, I know it

But you let yours build up and surface

And I hate what’s left, but you know I can’t let go

You do this every time

Now there’s no one by your side

But it’s your fault when you fall for your own lies

And you make your issues mine

I’ve seen this through too many times

You look at me and say you’ll try

But your eyes still don’t meet mine

Then we pretend everything’s fine

You hold your hands against my face

You pull me in, then push away

And no matter what I say

It’s still me that takes the blame

Now you do this every time

Now there’s no one by your side

But it’s your fault when you fall for your own lies

And you make your issues mine

And I hate what’s left, but you know I can’t let go

And I hate what’s left, but you know I can’t let go
