Bleeding Out Loud

Wore my heart on my sleeve
And told you I needed you
Then wore that shirt to sleep in

And by morning you'll leave
A piece of you part of me
I can hear it in your breathing

When you let me go
Would you let me down slow?
I'm bleeding out loud
I'm already bleeding out now

I can still hear you speak
Giving all of your reasons
As if I didn't know

And I start to believe it
Reach out so I feel you
But I'm clinging to a ghost

When you let me go
Would you let me down slow?
I'm bleeding out loud
I'm bleeding out loud
I'm already bleeding out now

And I know it's a dream
It's been years now since the real thing
But at night, when I'm weak
My mind can run and make believe

So when you let me go
Would you let me down slow?
