I can twist my fingers and say "it's better this way...to be alone. It's okay to be alone."

But Really, I lay awake at night and turn my hands over an empty place,

(hours on end)

knowing that place will stay empty forevermore if I can't get you to stay. 

I can't be here without your support. 

Id lose you if you really saw me.
