As Long As I'm With You

I wanted more, I wanted to
I wanna be nobody’s fool
I wanna hear that they think about me
I need the truth, I need to hide
I need to be pumped full of lies
I need to move, but it hurts just to breathe
I’m still aching, but I’m not breaking
As long as I’m with you
I’m losing ground, a quick regress
I’m trying hard, but I’m such a mess
I never dreamed I’d get so behind
A wrinkled brow, a broken heart
I’m falling out of disregard
I wanna scream what’s left of my mind
I’m still aching, but I’m not breaking
As long as I’m with you
I’m still aching, but I’m not breaking
As long as I’m with you
I gave it up, I sacrificed
I went along with their compromise
But now I’m gone with so much to achieve
There’s nothing left but wasted youth
It isn’t much, but I’m sorry too
I made you wait, but thank God you believed
I’m still aching, but I’m not breaking
As long as I’m with you
I’m still aching, but I’m not breaking
As long as I’m with you
I can’t fake it, but I will make it
As long as I’m with you
