A Misconception Of Being Here Forever

I reach out my hand
But its distant enough
I can't grasp it

Is this the last time
You want to see me
Cuz you're just walking away

The last thing I see
Is a single tear fall
Your hand waves slowly through the air

(This search will end soon)
I'm laying on the shoreline
(Waves crash over me)
You're running through the sand (but you're too far away)

(Just watch as the tide comes and takes me in)
I'm drifting away

I'm holding my breath
The water is fighting its way into my lungs
I can't take this much longer
Just watch me drift away

You're the one who asked for this
Is it really what you want
To let me slip away

Oh please just help me out
I'm not coming back
I'm not coming back

I fall to the ground
As you run to me
But you can't be fast enough

(It's already over
I'm looking back on everything
The way you used to care)

You wouldn't have let this happen
To me
Right in front of your eyes
You wouldn't have let me slip away
If you'd only think for yourself

This search will end soon
I'm laying on the shoreline
Waves crash over me
You're running through the sand but you're too far away

Just watch as the tide comes and takes me
I'm drifting away
