I'm holding back right now 'Cause I'm numb to what's around I miss the life I used to have with you right here Now everything has turned to grey, and I'm blacking out the shades for now Let me be sad even for a little while, just a chance to catch my breath Let me be sad even for a little while 'cause it's all that I have left When all I see are the memories, I don't wanna lose a thing Let me be sad, let me be sad Can you see it in my eyes I've been distant? 'Cause I can't tell if it's the end or the beginning I know I haven't been myself, I'll admit it And I put up walls, so if I burned any bridges, just know I'm doing everything I can to try and fix it But knowing me, I'll probably miss it These voices get so vicious Feels like I'm ripping stitches I wish some days I could go back Before life changed, it was so fast That time is gone, and I know that So, please Let me be sad even for a little while, just a chance to catch my breath Let me be sad even for a little while 'cause it's all that I have left When all I see are the memories, I don't wanna lose a thing Let me be sad, let me be sad, oh I'm doing everything I can to try and fix it But knowing me, I'll probably miss it These voices get so vicious Feels like I'm ripping stitches I wish some days I could go back Before life changed, it was so fast That time is gone, and I know that All that we have is a moment, so, please Let me be sad even for a little while, just a chance to catch my breath Let me be sad even for a little while 'cause it's all that I have left When all I see are the memories, I don't wanna lose a thing Let me be sad, let me be sad I'm holding back right now 'Cause I'm numb to what's around I miss the life I used to have with you right here Now everything has turned to grey, and I'm blacking out the shades for now
