Barely Living

you left
and all I have are the memories
all i have is what i wanted
is this what i wanted
is it what i deserved
deep down i know the truth
i know what i did was right
or was it right
was it really
did he deserve what i did to him
was i to harsh
was i harsh enough
do i miss him
am i going to make it
do i want to make it
he was me
i was he
we were the hearts of each other
we were what kept each other alive
i need to go back
but can i
should i
does he deserve me
does he deserve the satisfaction
no he should come for me
i shouldnt be the one chasing everytime
because of him 
i am barely living
