I Heard You Whisper

I wonder why  You tie yourself down Giving in to emotions you don't feel Just hanging around  I wonder why You wait for the second shoe to drop Maybe if you lived a little  Your deep depression would stop I heard you whisper But I doubt you knew About how you're just hanging on Even though the ties are frayed and few I wonder why  You don't just let go Grab on to something new Take a hold A life is worth living If given a chance  Maybe next time I'll be whispering  A warning in advance
