We are who we choose to be
I'm responsible for me
If I stay right here I?ll die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
It?s fair to say that we tried
You know I wanna stay, if I do I?ll die
I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die
Coulda been another one of those
Coulda made it, coulda made it
Shoulda made it, had I gave it
Just a little bit more of my time
Just a little focus, coulda broke this
Woulda woke this, shoulda choked this
Had I chose bliss I?d have left this infatuation
Far behind, I?ll exchange my mind
No more wasting time, this process is mine
In your eyes, my reflection is blind
In your arms I decide, this is our last night
Goodbye
I have to leave you
So long for you and I
If I stay right here I?ll die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
It?s fair to say that we tried
You know I wanna stay, if I do I?ll die
I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die
Been addicted to the burden of the gifted
To the sermon of the shifted, always praying to be lifted
Always settling, never bettering
How am I gonna win, if I'm not listening
Always asking for never noticing
Every move I make, this game?s reacting in
Perfect symmetry, I'm my destiny, must invest in me
Or I'm just gonna be victim of circumstance
All is left to chance, how can I enhance?
I'm afraid to dance
I must break this trance, 'cause it?s deafening
So I'm breathing in, I'm breathing in, I'm breathing in
Breath to get control of me
I have to be
If I stay right here I?ll die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
It?s fair to say that we tried
You know I wanna stay, if I do I?ll die
I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die
what's the use in living here yeah
If I don't feel alive forenied mistakes
So much I've done, so much to cry
I cry, I got to
If I stay right here I?ll die inside
Ran out of tears, I can barely get by
It?s fair to say that we tried
You know I wanna stay, if I do I?ll die
I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die, I?ll die
I?ll die, I?ll die
