I Need for You
I say you name out of habit
I forgot that you don’t hear me anymore
The silence feels so heavy
I try to carry on
Sometimes I think that I see you
I remember I don’t have you anymore
The space, it feels so empty
I try to carry on
I need for you
Heart beats for you
Lungs breathe for you
I know you have to leave
But don’t leave me alone
Cause I am nothing but a hollow body
When you go
I need for you
We used to share every morning
Now most days I end up keeping to myself
Cause it’s easier to handle
When I’m barely hanging on
When people come here to talk
I just listen, cause I don’t know what to say
No words for what I’m feeling
I’m barely hanging on
I need for you
Heart beats for you
Lungs breathe for you
I know you have to leave
But don’t leave me alone
Cause I am nothing but a hollow body
When you go
I need for you
I need for you
Heart beats for you
Lungs breathe for you
I know you have to leave
But don’t leave me alone
Cause I am nothing but a hollow body
When you go
I need for you
I need for you
I need for you
