Going Nowhere

Verse 1
You came to me out of darkness
I tried to show you the light
You showed me all the things gone wrong
I tried to make them right
But no matter what I did
You slipped through my hands
The task was too great
With too many demands
I let you go
Now I know…
Chorus
I’m going nowhere without you
Try as I might to leave you behind
I’m going nowhere without you
Nothing can break the ties that bind
Verse 2
You pushed me away out of anger
Pulled me back in out of fear
The very words I used to sooth you
Were the ones you could never hear
One moment, I was your greatest ally
Your most trusted friend
The next I was looking for the exit
And praying for the end
Repeat chorus
Bridge
With your tongue as sharp as a razor
And my eyes too blind to see
The abused become the abuser
This time the sacrifice was me
You’re a scar that never heals
You’re a scar that never heals
You’re a scar that never heals
You’re a scar that never heals
Verse 3
I will never claim to be a victim
I pushed you just as hard
I will never claim to be the only one
Your heart was just as scarred
In the end, you’re still a part of me
We’re still on the same page
There’s enough understanding
To quell the bitterness and rage
Repeat Chorus
I’m going nowhere without you
Even though I thought I’d lose my mind
I know now the most tragic love
Can be the most enlightening kind
