Still breathing

Lyrics

It was a hot summer’s day But the world turned cold that way You locked the door, shut me outside While I watched our whole life collide Through the glass I saw your pain That gun pressed against your head My heart was pounding out my chest Begging God don’t let this end I was screaming through the tears Frozen by my darkest fear Couldn’t reach you, couldn’t break through Felt the whole world losing you I was drowning in the lies they fed Every whisper filled my head Turned me into someone else Till I couldn’t save myself Don’t let them tear us apart Don’t let them poison your heart They tried to turn love into war Till we didn’t know us anymore I saw death behind your eyes Saw our whole world almost die But I’m still here holding on Even when everything went wrong You’re not the man they made you be Come back home… come back to me Your so called friends lit the flame Smiling while they spoke our names Pulling strings behind our backs Watching everything collapse I became someone unknown Lost inside a heart of stone But somewhere through the noise and scars I could still hear who we are I saw the pain behind your face Like you were trapped with no escape But I refused to let you fall I still believed beneath it all Don’t let them tear us apart Don’t let them poison your heart They tried to turn love into war Till we didn’t know us anymore I saw death behind your eyes Saw our whole world almost die But I’m still here holding on Even when everything went wrong You’re not the man they made you be Come back home… come back to me That summer day still burns my mind The fear, the tears, the warning signs I thought I’d lose you in that room Thought love was digging both our tombs THEY TRIED TO BREAK US FROM INSIDE TURN LOVE INTO A PLACE TO HIDE BUT WE’RE STILL BREATHING THROUGH THE PAIN AND WE WON’T LET THEM WIN AGAIN Don’t let them tear us apart Don’t let them poison your heart Through every scar and every lie I’ll stand beside you till I die I saw the darkness take your soul But love pulled you back from the cold And after all the pain we’ve known We’re still standing… not alone You opened the door… And I saw you again… Not the man they created… But the man I still
