although you know youre the air i breathe,

im gasping for oxygen

although you said youd never leave

i didnt see you again

and even though im standing here

out in the open,

nobody seems to see me,

i guess im alone again.

and now i see

that within me

theres a problem i have created

and now that i know,

please do not go,

for you, i'd always change me.

i seem to be in a predicament

and trying to fix myself

still hasnt worked yet.

but even when i say my prayers

no lord has saved me

and even though i have no wares,

i can still count my blessings.

it was a shame,

a dirty shame

to lose the person of whom i speak

but crying about it each day

does absolutely nothing
