Why

A couple too many

Long nights, feeling empty why don't I get it by now

When I'm barely breathing

And my heart is bleeding

Why don 't you see it by now

I give while you take

I bend till I break

You 're still my favorite mistake

What if you 're the one

But the timing is wrong

Maybe in another life it could be you and I

Oh why

Why do we hold on when everything is gone why don't we move on

Tell me why

Our final goodbye doesn't feel like we are done

Why am I still holding on

We sit here silence

Our hearts do the talking

They say what we already know

We 're close to the end

But for now we pretend

That we never have to let go

I give while you take

I bend till I break

You 're still my favorite mistake

What if you 're the one

But the timing is wrong

Maybe in another life it could be you and I

Oh why

Why do we hold on when everything is gone

Why don't we move on

Tell me why

Our final goodbye doesn't feel like we are done

Why am I still holding on

Ooo-ooo-ooon

Why am I still holding on

Oh-ohh-ohhh

Why am I still holding on

I don't think i 'm ready to lose

A piece of my heart that was you

We 're running in circles again and again

I don 't think I 'm ready to leave

I'm looking for reasons to keep

Fighting for us once again

And again

Oh why

Why do we hold on when everything is gone

Tell me why

Our final goodbye doesn't feel like we are done

Why am I still holding on

Ooo-ooo-ooon

Why am I still holding on

Ooo-ooo-ooon

Why am I still holding on
