Mile High

I gave you all of me, every breath in this chest.
Every morsel of love I had buried in my breast.
Every emotion I could find to invest meant nothing.
Though I thought I gave you my very best.

My eyes are heavy with the weight of the day tied to them,
But there's no way I can enjoy my sleep
When the stems of my eyes dig their roots into my mind
And replay those images a thousand times
Over and over like a broken record
taking a chance to rewind every few seconds.
It's no wonder you haunt my dreams every night.
Even when I don't see you, you won't get out of my sight.

You should be dead to me, but you're still very much alive
Even though I can't see you, you're still ruining my life.
Why are you doing this? I'm flying a mile high,
Even with you so far down, I'm still looking for exit signs.
"Please fasten your seatbelts, we're in for a bumpy ride"
But all I want to do is get off this flight.
