lyrics

I made a big mistake,
I know it's hard to say.
Never wanted to be this way before.

Now I'm thinking random thoughts.
Forcing out the pain.
Trying to believe,
This is just a dream,
That I'm not insane.

And it's not the last time,
That I'll ask you,
Just what I could do to end this for you.
And I'm sorry I don't know,
Don't act like you do.
Just what could come of this.
I'm missing being with you.

And I'm wishing for a nightmare,
Wishing you could've been there.
Trying to believe.
Walking on my bare feet,
Standing on the concrete.
Trying to believe.

Hold on tight,
And don't let go.
I'll make this right,
I'll try and show,
But you don't have to know.

And it's not the last time,
That I'll ask you,
Just what I could do to end this for you.
And I'm sorry I don't know,
Don't act like you do.
Just what could come of this.
I'm missing being with you.

And I'm wishing for a nightmare,
Wishing you could've been there.
Trying to believe.
Walking on my bare feet,
Standing on the concrete.
Trying to believe.

Hold on tight,
And don't let go.
I'll make this right,
I'll try and show,
But you don't have to know.

And it's not the last time,
That I'll ask you,
Just what I could do to end this for you.
And I'm sorry I don't know,
Don't act like you do.
Just what could come of this.
I'm missing being with you.
