Tryin' to escape the heartache, tryin' to escape emotion
What's the point in love when you have to give it up
I used to enjoy spending time on my own here
I seem to keep losing track of time and how long it's been
Tryin' to escape the heartache, tryin' to escape emotion
Been a gamble that I knew I couldn't win
So I'm not holding back the tears anymore
Now here I am sharing their plan and their lonely tears
Watching the jaded people pass
Been a lonely conversation to this photograph of you
It's a constant fight to get through each day and night
And the face that's in your mind, every time you close your eyes
Been a painful road to a door that's closed
What's the reason, what's the answer, how long will this last
Still I hear it clearly every day and night
Since I last had you near
No, I'm not holding back the tears anymore
I depended on you
No, I'm not holding back the tears anymore
Yesterday's my memory reminding me of all the times
Yesterday's my memory reminding me of all the times
I depended on you
And walking a road of broken glass
So I'm not holding back the tears anymore
It's a war between the present and the past
Been a long, long time since I heard your last goodbye
In the mirror there's a sign, I must give in
