WAITING

It's like being dead

I feel empty again

She stole my heart

She stole my soul

And now,

I wonder if I

Should walk out of life's door

It's open

It's waiting for me

Who's holding me back?

Why can't she see

I love you

This wasn't a game

I genuinely care

And I want you back

What did I ever do

To make her mind turn to black

I thought she understood

But I guess I was wrong

I can't even listen to music

Every word of the songs

Reminds me of you

And no matter how hard I try

I wonder if I can ever get through

These painful nights

They're killing me

And I try my best to be smart

To not hurt myself

But it doesn't work that way

I wish there was some kind of deal I could make

Just give you back to me

And I can give her the world

But it's not mine to give

And you weren't hers to take away

So, here's to us,

I guess

I'm just terrified you won't come back

And it's too late

For this young girl's heart

You can't just give it back

You've had it from the start

When I fell in love with you

That was it

I was hooked for life

You're the addiction

I can't detox from

There is no other side

I guess what surprises me

Is when you said to leave

Because you know

I'm not going anywhere, Nick,

You're stuck with me

And I know you don't care

Because truly,

That's how you want it to be

So please realize

I'm always going to be here

I'm waiting . . . I'm waiting
