Sinking Lyrics

This is the only thing I have worth holding onto
I have condensed my past to fit the lines
On the pages that no one will ever see
But still I fight, day after day

'Cause this is all I've ever wanted my life to be
And I push everything I've ever loved away
To keep myself from sinking

If I find the bad in everything, I can never be attached
I'm trying to find a balance, trying to find my way
And every choice I've ever made brings me
Anywhere but home

But I've welcomed sacrifice with open arms
And I will never regret my decision
This is the only thing I have worth holding on to

This is the only thing that makes me feel alive
I've simply been searching for the right place to rest my head
I'm searching for common ground
Between all that I am and all that you need me to be

I've seen a future and want nothing to do with it
A constant campaign to impress those who never ever cared
I'm struggling but I won't allow myself to sink

You know where to find me
I keep my composure and assume my place
In front of the people I love most

You're the reason why we're here
I'm struggling, but I won't allow myself to sink
