Weak

Where do we fall when we have to let go?
Where do we go when we feel so low?
Caught me in the sky, now there's nowhere to go
And I can't let go, no I can't let go

You're all I've ever wanted, all that's ever cared
But I feel like I'm drowning and I'm so, so scared
That you won't pull me out
Of this sea of worries and terrible doubts

I would scream, but I don't think you'd hear me
I would call, but I know you wouldn't answer
I would go, but it'll hurt so bad if I do
And I would hold on, but it hurts more being with you
