Holding on to nothing

Lyrics

I lie awake, staring at the cracks
The quiet's loud, I can’t bring you back
You walked away without a second glance
Left me shattered, like I never had a chance

You’re out there laughing, but I’m drowning in pain
My world fell apart, and yours stayed the same
You left so easily, like I didn’t exist
Now I’m here alone, wondering what I missed

I’m holding on to the ghost of us
To a love that’s buried in the dust
You’re out there smiling while I fall apart
You’ve moved on, but I’m lost in the dark
I gave you my heart, but you tore it in two
Now I’m stuck with dreams that’ll never come true
I’m holding on to nothing, but I can’t let go
I’m holding on to what I’ll never know

You were my light, now I’m lost in the night
Can’t remember the last time I felt alright
You’re with your boys, laughing like it’s all fine
While I’m drowning in the space where you were mine

I see your face in every empty place
Hear your voice, but it’s just an empty trace
You were my world, and now I’m just a ghost
Living in the shadows of what I needed most


I’m holding on to the ghost of us
To a love that’s buried in the dust
You’re out there smiling while I fall apart
You’ve moved on, but I’m lost in the dark
I gave you my heart, but you tore it in two
Now I’m stuck with dreams that’ll never come true
I’m holding on to nothing, but I can’t let go
I’m holding on to what I’ll never know


You were my future, now you’re just my past
How do I move on when I thought we’d last?
Every tear I cry feels like it's for you
But you’re not even hurting, you’re not feeling it too

How could you forget everything we had?
Was I nothing more than just a passing fad?
You’re still out there living, while I’m dying inside
I’m still holding on, though you never tried


I’m holding on to the ghost of us
To a love that’s buried in the dust
You’re out there smiling while I fall apart
You’ve moved on, but I’m lost in the dark
I gave you my heart, but you tore it in two
Now I’m stuck with dreams that’ll never come true
I’m holding on to nothing, but I can’t let go
I’m holding on to what I’ll never know

You’re gone, but I’m still here, trapped in your wake
Trying to breathe through all this heartache
I’m holding on to nothing, but I can’t break free
You moved on... but I’m still holding me.
