"Suffocating" lyrics

"Suffocating"

We don't fight the way we used to
TV's doing all the talking
You still cry but not as often
Holding my hand like you have to
I don't wash as many sweatshirts
You always used to forget yours
It's eating my alive
Watching you silently decide
I see it in your eyes
Terrified you'll say what's on your mind

I feel like I'm suffocating
You're looking at me like we might not make it
You are the only thing I've found worth saving
The only place that feels like home
You're all I know
So, please, don't let me go
Please, don't let me go

And I'm in the weeds to make this work
But we're five-feet deep in six-foot dirt
And when it's three words, it's halfway true
'Cause I say them first, you say, "Me too."
And I'm pretty sure we're at goodbye
'Cause I'm still yours but you're not mine
When I'm the only one that even tries

I feel like I'm suffocating
You're looking at me like we might not make it
You are the only thing I've found worth saving
The only place that feels like home
You're all I know
So, please, don't let me go
Please, don't let me go
Please, don't let me go
Please, don't let me go

Tell myself to keep it together
Stay inside and wait out the weather
Listen to your heart 'til your head hurts
It gets worse before it gets better
"I love you" is not complicated
It's a "yes"-or-"no" situation
It shouldn't be so hard to say it. No

I feel like I'm suffocating
You're looking at me like we might not make it
You are the only thing I've found worth saving
The only place that feels like home
You're all I know
So, please, don't let me go
Please, don't let me go
Please, don't let me go
Please, don't let me go
