It's someone else's life I'm living
Wish I were living a lie
The hardest part is when the bough breaks
Falling down and then forgiving
You didn't kiss me goodbye
I'm choking on the words I didn't get to say
And pray I get the chance one day

(chorus)
I still run, I still swing open the door
I still think, you'll be there like before
Doesn't everybody out there know to never come around
Some thing's a heart won't listen to
I'm still holding out for you

I can hear you smile in the dark
I can even feel your breathing
But daylight chases the ghosts
I see your coat and I fall apart
To those hints of you I'm clinging
Now's when I need them most
I should get up, dry my eyes and move ahead
At least that's what you would have said

(repeat chorus)

Bridge:
Faithfully, I trace your name while you sleep
It's the only true comfort I feel

I still run, I still swing open the door
I still think, you'll be there like before

(repeat chorus
