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
