(Verse 1) 
 
I paced through the corridor, an endless fight 
My mind had me drowning in the wrong from the right 
The peach fuzz from your cheekbone kept me up all night 
And I am frozen stiff from your irresistible sight  
 
From your heartbreak, I fled town, seeking truth 
But all my hope washed away from my fountain of youth  
And keeping tabs on self-harm and my eating, too 
I slowly crumble, what did you do? 
 
(PreChorus) 
 
And I know it’s all over and your heart had built other plans 
But the plans I had were built from your strong hands 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Holding onto hope because that’s what we said 
But all this hope makes me keep wishing I was just dead 
And my grave 
Here to stay 
I am suffering here today 
 
(Verse 2) 
 
Lovely day to be alive, or so you’d say 
But I am here like a dead rose just wilting away 
And you, my friend, the one I lost, couldn’t find the time to stay 
I lost your contact, what a sad day 
 
(PreChorus) 
 
And I know it’s all over and your heart had built other plans 
But the plans I had were built from your strong hands 
 
(Chorus) 
 
Holding onto hope because that’s what we said 
But all this hope makes me keep wishing I was just dead 
And my grave 
Here to stay 
I am suffering here today 
 
(Bridge) 
 
Maybe you changed your mind to quickly 
Maybe I should have been wise 
But maybe we were supposed to last 
And you’re not hearing my cries 
My mind stays 
On replay 
I am suffering here today 
 
And you told me I’m the best damn thing has ever happened  
I’m barely alive, oh, this day is ever saddened 
I am torn apart 
Broken heart
