You look me in my eyes
And I could not see your disguise
I followed every caution that I knew
But now it's no surprise
That you can only talk the talk
And now there's nothing left for me to do
I will never hold my breath
'Cause I will only suffocate
And while I'm waiting, time is wasting
And I can only do my best
To put another to the test
And while I'm waiting, you're just fading away
You followed me around
And picked my heart up off the ground
You made me wanna be a better me
And then you turned you back
As if our time was all an act
I guess there's nothing left for me to see
I will never hold my breath
'Cause I will only suffocate
And while I'm waiting, time is wasting
And I can only do my best
To put another to the test
And while I'm waiting, you're just fading away
All I could see is what you wanted me to see
All I could hear is what you would never say
And all I could do is just go on without you anyway, anyway
I can today while you're fading away
I will never hold my breath
'Cause I will only suffocate
And while I'm waiting, time is wasting
And I can only do my best
To put another to the test
And while I'm waiting, you're just fading away
