dead the day ur gone

Where do you go when it's over
When the truth is in front of your eyes?
'Cause I keep staring into yours
And you keep looking through mine
You say we're turning to nothing
What do I do if you're right?
And I'm still hoping the wounds will close
'Cause we're both hurting

And I keep holding onto something
Even if it's putting us through it
Ooh-oh-ooh, I'll keep holding onto nothing
'Cause if I lose you, then I lose myself

I'd try to walk away
But I'd never be the same
If I had to give you up
I'd be dead the day you're gone
Leaving's the hardest part
Stab me right through the heart
If I had to give you up
I'd be dead the day you're gone

Everything comes to the surface
I'm good at ignoring the signs
The knot in my stomach is growing
But I just keep pretending I'm fine
'Cause I know I'm nothing without you
So, I just keep biding my time
Hoping and praying that I see
The day that you smile again

And I keep holding onto something
Even if it's putting us through it
Ooh-oh-ooh, I'll keep holding onto nothing
'Cause if I lose you, then I lose myself, oh

I'd try to walk away
But I'd never be the same
If I had to give you up
I'd be dead the day you're gone
Leaving's the hardest part
Stab me right through the heart
If I had to give you up
I'd be dead the day you're gone

(Ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh)
I'd be dead the day you're gone
(Ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh, ooh-oh-ooh)
I'd be dead the day your gone

I tried to walk away
But I'd never be the same
I'd had to give you up
I'd be dead the day you're gone
