Lyrics

When it gets me depressed I find
That it's best with my chest high
As I stretch my lungs & express my love
Hold my breath & forget my pride
To reflect that the rest of our lives are a measure of time
We may as well try to express some style
I exhale my prayer
(And) follow it with my eyes as it fills the air
In the back of my mind I imagine that you can hear
As if you could still be near me

But
Lately I've been breaking my mind
Trying my best but it's taking its time
Cause
I've been forced to digest this wasteful emptiness
I'm supposed to laugh as if there's nothing going on
I know life goes on regardless
But nothing's been the same
Since you've been gone

Another run around the sun
Look at the things we've seen
What have we both become?
What have we dreamed?
Who have we lost?
And what have we won?

I never could've believed that you wouldn't have finished what we'd begun
I never cared to imagine you would've been taken away from us

Lately I've been breaking my mind
Trying my best but it's taking its time
Cause
I've been forced to digest this wasteful emptiness
I'm supposed to laugh as if there's nothing going on
I know life goes on regardless
But nothing's been the same
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone

Now times change & the game plays on
And the truth remains but the rules have all gone wrong
Life rises, now here we are
Still looking for the place where we belong
Stronger than habit & fantasy
Deeper than gravity
What will be has to be
God damn it, I understand it
I hadn't imagined you'd leave me stranded
On this stage in these lights where I'm standing
No right to complain
Cause it's already more than I'd ever had asked
But without you
The best has yet to pass & now this song is about you

And I've been forced to digest this wasteful emptiness
I'm supposed to laugh as if there's nothing going on
I know life goes on regardless
But nothing's been the same
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
