Keep Up
I'm falling behind
I can't keep you in my mind
You're just tearing me apart
From everything that's in my heart
There used to be a we
But now there's just me
You have ruined my past life
That it feels like you stabbed me with a knife
I thought I had you
But now you're someone brand new
I thought I was protected
But I just second-guessed it
You had me wrapped around your thumb
Until I became terribly numb
It feels like you ruined my sight
That I don't know which is left or right
Now I need to stay strong
Even though this road is long.
