"Take a deep breath", she said stop fighting with yourself Forget what they told you The lies that they sold you To keep your head full of doubt There's a million ways to break you down, you’re finally breaking out You had the confidence, now go and give 'em hell I'm not on my own I've finally found the strength to speak Throwing punches at the things making me weak I thought, I thought that this would be the death of me But you made, you made me believe I could be something I used to think I had it all figured out Playing it safe was the best escape from letting everyone down I got too tired and grew too comfortable But there's so much more to life when you won't let it swallow you whole I'm not on my own I've finally found the strength to speak Throwing punches at the things making me weak I thought, I thought that this would be the death of me But you made, you made me believe I could be something I'm not on my own I've finally found the strength to speak Throwing punches at the things making me weak I thought, I thought that this would be the death of me But you made, you made me believe I could be something

Another message goes unanswered I know you must be getting sick Of always reaching out for what you need When I don't know how to handle it Wish I could escape this helpless feeling The pressure in my head is always building Why does it feel like there is nowhere left to go? Lately I feel like something's missing the ground is sinking Underneath what I thought was concrete I feel unstable I'm worried that I'm not able to keep my thoughts from racing to let my body feel relief I'm afraid of the future Will it be everything I wanted to be? If I amount to nothing, would you still light a candle for me? Lately I feel like something's missing the ground is sinking Underneath what i thought was concrete Feeling both of my wrists tighten up I'm losing grip on everything I love, but Lately I feel like something's missing I need new air inside my lungs I'm breathing in deeply but nothing comes In this life I need to know, I am enough I need new air inside my lungs I'm breathing in deeply but nothing comes In this life I need to know, I am enough Lately I feel like something's Missing the ground is sinking Underneath what I thought was concrete Feeling both of my wrists tighten up I'm losing grip on everything I love, but Lately I feel like something's missing

Portland 03:49
You say I’m a basket case I’ve lost my mind running in place I say there’s no going back Help me pick up my slack I know I’ve crossed the line once or twice That was the last time I saw your bags in the hallway Pleading for you to stay Pleading for you to stay Stay gone Do you feel ashamed? Stay gone When you remember my name? Time’s exposed I'm just like all the rest Once again I came in second best I keep on pointing fingers in the wrong direction I see the enemy in my reflection As life bring me new perspective Stay gone Do you feel ashamed? Stay gone When you remember my name? Don’t come back from Portland There’s nothing left for you to save Don’t come back from Portland There’s nothing left for you to save Don’t come back from Portland There’s nothing left for you to save Don’t come back from Portland There’s nothing left for you to save Stay gone Do you feel ashamed? Stay gone When you remember my name? Stay gone Do you feel ashamed? Stay gone When you remember my name?

Don’t count me out When I’m knocked down I’m so sick of running away cause I can’t catch my breath My heart’s been fluttering so fast After everything you said But I can’t be Who I was anymore So I’ll stay here just to see What you’ve got in store for me Don’t count me out When I’m knocked down I’m not going anywhere But I can’t do this by myself I can't prove I’m someone else I’m not going anywhere Don’t say I never cared I’m still learning from the mistakes that I made And I can’t patch up your wounds with the words I say I guess that I was wrong Don’t count me out When I’m knocked down I’m not going anywhere But I can’t do this by myself I can't prove I’m someone else I’m not going anywhere Don’t say I never cared I'm not going anywhere Don’t say I never cared

Its funny how you find The things you don’t expect when fate decides When I was finally moving forward From memories I held too tight Like a whirlwind she swept me up in Surrounded by dancing lights I was captured by her confidence and falling in plain sight Two hours turned to two years in the blink of an eye I know how bright the light is With every day I call her mine In a future life See you in a white dress across the aisle We'd live out that front porch dream A movie scene of the best days of our lives If a past of walking through hellfire Makes where we are now feel so right I'd do it all over and over again If it meant choosing you every time Through all the lives we leave behind Someway somehow the stars aligned Through passing days and changing ways You are my flame burning inside I don't wanna spend another day without you by my side After all the lives we left behind We are the ones we both got right I'm done running scared And I know there's things that we both fear But I promise I'll be your anchor The one thing that stays familiar That you call home Like the tattoos on your arm That remind me of where we come from What we knew all along All the lives we leave behind Somehow someway the stars aligned Passing days and changing ways You are my flame And I don't wanna spend another day without you by my side Cause we are the ones we both got right Through all the lives we leave behind Someway somehow the stars aligned Through passing days and changing ways You are my flame burning inside I don't wanna spend another day without you by my side After all the lives we left behind We are the ones we both got right
