This Heart Of Mine

Oh my God what have I become?
I have lost all hope for better days with no one beside me
From the lowest I have ever been
I found rock bottom is comfortable
When you're living in a haze, lonely at twenty years old
Singing "please don't go"

Cause I've got this heart of mine
It beats for every time a second chance has been wasted on me
To whom it may concern, message was sent but burned
By a flame I thought I had put out
So let it die here and let me go

I swear that this is not the life I was taught to lead
Growing old in the same town that I grew up in
But I love my little home, though I strive for something more
Paralyzed by the roots that seem to keep me here
Crawling on the floor, breaking nails to get away
But I still can't go
