about

This is a song about solitude and abandonment. It wishes to describe the lack of self-confidence and the anxiety that result from a breakup. Those moments when all you can really do is wallow in your sorrow, with the weight of the whole world on your back and nobody to help you through it. It's about being used to sharing your life with someone else, and being forced to start thinking as an "I", rather than a "We".

lyrics

Crawling ‘cause my legs don't feel the same darling
I just want to stay at home
Even if I'm scared
And I’m needing you the most

I still find myself holding back my tears when you look at me
I'm wasting time and I'm lying awake
Pretending to sleep to make you stay
I'm wavering through the aisle of my home
I'm waiting for you to call me back
I can't bare this alone
I can't bare this no more
When I needed you the most is when you hurt me more

I refused to heal my wounds and you digged your nails into it
Sometimes I hold my breath to check if I'm alive
When I needed you the most is when you hurt me more

I still find myself holding back my tears when you look at me
I'm wasting time and I'm lying awake
Pretending to sleep to make you stay
I'm wavering through the aisle of my home
I'm waiting for you to call me back
I can't bare this alone
I can't bare this no more
