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.
