It shouldn't ever be this way
I found out the truth about you today
I should be afraid
But I can't possibly stay away
After all, I love you
And it seems I just don't care about the truth

You're not the person I thought I knew
I had a plan to run but I can't follow through
Because I find it hard to breathe without you

I hate the silence from wherever you are
I wish you'd call my name and save me from the dark
But the distance I'd travel is so...far...
Why did you have to lie and make this so hard?
Please just be honest and tell me the truth
I don't want to have to tear myself away from you

You're not the person I thought I knew
I had a plan to run but I can't follow through
Because I find it hard to breathe without you

Haunted by your past
Guided by revenge
Oh God I know that this should be the end
But I still want you close
Don't leave me here to die
I am falling in two and it's so hard not to cry

You're not the person I thought I knew
I had a plan to run but I can't follow through
I find it hard to breathe without you
You're not the person I thought I knew
I, I can't believe that I can't breathe without you

I wrote this when I found out that the one I love was pretending to be someone else - quite literally. But I was still attached and couldn't let go...
