I'll [try to] Rise Above This

Today I realized you will never speak the words I long to hear
Today I realized you will never hold me close like I crave
Today I realized I can't do anything but crack and crumble

Into these pieces in a pile
I can't stand this helplessness
"I've fallen down"
And I can't get back up

I'll try to mend myself before this gets me
I'll fix myself before I get me
I'll cry myself to sleep before this gets me
"I call your name, everyday" to see if you still care
But my cries go on deaf ears

Today I realized this breaking heart is just the start
Today I realized this bruised spirit is only the begginning
Today I realized this lonely lover is lost without you
Today I realized you were everything to me

I'll try to mend myself before the dark gets me
I'll fix myself before I get me
I'll cry myself to sleep before this gets me
"I call your name, everyday" to see if I can get you to turn around
But my cries go on deaf ears

Today I realized I can't do anything but crack and crumble
Into these pieces into a pile
I can't stand this helplessness
"I've fallen down"
And I can't get back up
Even if I wanted to
