I guess we all learn eventually
To bury the fondest memory
But it wasn't meant to be like this (x2)

I remember the days quite clearly
You stayed in my arms and didn't leave
I could feel your breath on my skin

I never braced myself
(You swore you'd catch me)
I never braced myself
(You swore you'd catch me)
Left in the dark, blindsided I can't breathe

Air fills my lungs and I can't speak

Blindsided I can't breathe

At the edge of the earth, I watch you leave
Air fills my lungs, and I can't breathe
Oh, you were the push I needed

I replayed it again, oh and again
Tortured myself, you in my head
But I just can't make sense of it

I never braced myself
(You swore you'd catch me)
I never braced myself
(You swore you'd catch me)
Left in the dark, blindsided I can't breathe

Air fills my lungs and I can't speak

Blindsided I can't breathe

I just wish I was the one that got away

Blindsided I can't breathe
