Searching
Running in circles
Chasing what I want
I’ve been searching for someone like you
I swam across an ocean of doubt
Leaped over a mountain of regret
Just to find you
I beg and plead
That they won’t come back and take you home
And the confusion never stops
You are what I need
And there are no signs of life
Without you here the entire world disappears
I’m standing on the edge of nothing
Hanging on by a thread
But I still look for you
Seeking you until you’re mine
You are the reason I still fight
The reason I’m still alive
I got a hole in my soul
And everyday it grows deeper and deeper
But you save me from myself
You drag me out alive
You pick me back up
I won’t fall this time
I close my eyes and I hold my breath
I take your hand and I hold it tight
I kiss your lips and I take it in
You know that I can't do this on my own
So when I’m still looking
I hope you’ll be searching for me too
