why

Before I let the world come crashing down on me, I
Before I lose your arms wrapped around me that holds tight
And on the nights I lie awake from asking myself why
Why
Why

And give me a moment to breathe
I need a sense of relief
To get through what's killing me
And I'm trying to hold on to peace
For when I'm down on my knees
And praying God let me be

And when I find myself along on roads I don't recognize
And when I blink and your eyes turn to dust then say goodbye
And when I find the love I want then lose it one more time
Time
Time

And give me a moment to breathe
I need a sense of relief
To get through what's killing me
And I'm trying to hold on to peace
For when I'm down on my knees
And praying God let me be
