They say that life is "Sink or Swim"
Well I'd hate to admit what an anchor I've been
They say you get what you give
I must have given them hell to end up like this

If I had my fix then you've had your fill
It's a tough pill to swallow to pretend you're not real
If I could get the taste of your name off my lips

Or If could just shake off the rust
Rush headlong into feeling, crash into love
Lately things get so twisted up and I've never known
When enough is enough

It's the tough choices we made
It's the way we made ourselves lose faith
But if the future breathes life
I'll dust myself off before it all just goes to waste

If you were gonna leave
You should of left me like you found me
'Cause I'm wearing weak and thin
I'm holding onto each breathe before I let another one in
And one day we'll catch up on how it all caught up with us

It is up to me to reassemble things
To not get swept up in the mess that you made of me
But the thought of changing leads to fears that just maybe
I will not have what it takes
And that's a fear I can not shake

It's been a long day and somehow I think I lost my spark
I tried to leave my finger print but instead left a mark
I can't remember, but I know it was a great day
I have to look back to see the progress we made.
How did we end up like this?
I'll take what you give and you'll break what I mend.

You should of left me like you found me
'Cause I'm wearing weak and thin
I'm holding onto each breathe before I let another one in
And one day we'll catch up on how it all caught up with us

It is up to me to reassemble things
To not get swept up in the mess that you made of me
But the thought of changing leads to fears that just maybe
I will not have what it takes
And that's a fear I can not shake
