You're All I Have - Silverstein

I wake up in the afternoon
Empty walls make up the room
And I'm wishing for one thing
To give myself the strength to keep myself alive

Long enough to make sure you don't try
To turn out anything like me
Another fraud, another fake

Don't pretend you're not the one who's wrong
You're keeping me sane when I'm feeling alone
I wield my heart and my flesh and bones
Don't leave me to die by myself
I can't live without you

The sunlight's creeping through the blinds
Calling me from these confines
There's only so many more days
Until you're cast away from ever seeing me

They won't understand, they'll never see
The way you medicate my head
Without you here, I'm left for dead

Don't pretend you're not the one who's wrong
You're keeping me sane when I'm feeling alone
I wield my heart and my flesh and bones
Don't leave me to die by myself
I can't live without you
Without you here

You're all I have
In a world that judges long before it sees
You're all I have
In a place that hates me and only wants to

Push me down now I'm forsaken
Past the point you'll bend and break me
I won't be fine, you're all mistaken
Don't pretend you're not the one who's wrong

Don't you pretend it's gonna be okay
Don't lie and say it's better off this way
Don't pretend you're not the one who's wrong

Don't pretend
You're keeping me sane when I'm feeling alone
I wield my heart and my flesh and bone
Don't leave me to die by myself
I can't live without you here
Without you here

You're not the one who's wrong
You're keeping me sane when I'm feeling alone
You're not the one who's wrong
Don't leave me to die when I'm feeling alone
I can't live without you

Don't pretend you're not the one who's wrong
