Catch me if I fall

Do you believe in eventually?

I tried to be perfect
But nothing was worth it
I don't believe it makes me real
I thought it'd be easy
But no one believes me
I meant all the things I said

If you believe it's in my soul
I'd say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I'm better off on my own

This place is so empty
My thoughts are so tempting
I don't know how it got so bad
Sometimes it's so crazy
That nothing can save me
But it's the only thing that I have

If you believe it's in my soul
I'd say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I'm better off on my own

On my own

I tried to be perfect
It just wasn't worth it
Nothing could ever be so wrong
It's hard to believe me
It never gets easy
I guess I knew that all along

If you believe it's in my soul
I'd say all the words that I know
Just to see if it would show
That I'm trying to let you know
That I'm better off on my own

I'm so tired. I don't want to be alone right now, but maybe it's best. My black balloon is pulling me down, and I think I'm pulling you down with me. Sorry babe, but I don't think you're ready to lead me home just yet. Eventually, perhaps. When... if... we're both stronger.

I'm tired of running in the wrong direction. Tired of fighting the same fights, saying the same words, crying the same tears. It all becomes meaningless after a while, and all I have left is a couple of snapshots and a bucketful of regret. It shouldn't be happening to you, of all people. Not you. Anyone but. I said I wanted to protect you, so let me do this, okay?

I'd like to think I'm doing this for us, but I guess ultimately I'm doing it for you. It's not your fight, and you can't help right now. You'd just get hurt if you tried. Trust me on this one.

Just have faith. Like you said last night, I'll be okay. Even if I take some time. I'll figure it out, like I always do. At least until the next wave comes along. But even this wave will pass... and I'll get back to the surface, somehow.

Don't hold your breath though. That's for me to do. I'll see you in a bit.


Run
Running all the time
Running to the future
With you right by my side

Me
I’m the one you chose
Out of all the people
You wanted me the most
I’m so sorry that I’ve fallen
Help me up, lets keep on running
Don’t let me fall out of love

Running, running
As fast as we can
I really hope you make it
(Do you think we'll make it?)
We're running
Keep holding my hand
So we don't get separated

Be
Be the one I need
Be the one I trust most
Don’t stop inspiring me
Sometimes it's hard to keep on running
Work so much to keep it going
Don’t make me want to give up

Running, running
As fast as we can
I really hope you make it
(Do you think we'll make it?)
We're running
Keep holding my hand
So we don't get separated
Running, running
As fast as we can
I really hope you make it
(Do you think we'll make it?)
We're running
Keep holding my hand
So we don't get separated

Eventually. Yeah.
