i dont know who I am



I've been torn apart

paid the price and now I'm back at "start"

I don't know how much I can take

before my heart starts to crack from wear and tear.

All I know is I need her by my side

or I can't face the world

I may be a fighter but last night I cried

her love is all I need

it's been a joy ride.

I swear it's true

like my life support

and if you were to hurt me

she's my achilles heel.

But I don't know who I am

before meeting her I had a goal,

dreams ambition

but now I'm tired and I need a shoulder

to lay on I'm tired on the american dream.
