Michael Fitzgibbon - Emily

Paint a picture
And throw it on my wall
Leave me something
To save me when I fall
Cause I'm worried that I left behind
The man I'm meant to be
When you kissed my cheek
And said you had to leave

If I'm drowning
And trying to stay afloat
You'll help me breathe another breath
And show me where to go
But I'll never stop to tell you this
And I'm asking myself why
Oh maybe I'm too young to realise

I'm good at being vulnerable
And knowing how to heal
But I never seem to let myself
Tell you how I feel
And as words dry in my throat again
My blood begins to freeze
I'd write it in a song for you
So only you could see
I'm so lonely
Won't you hold me
Emily

I'll try to send you flowers
To make you feel like home
It's hard enough we're growing up
And no one even knows
Now how can I be comfortable
Just letting people go
When honestly, Emily
I'd hate to be alone

So tell me now what's on your mind
Oh what have we become
I'm finding it hard waiting here
I think I'd rather run
This city might be killing me
It's making me so numb
I can't breathe with all this smoke in my lungs

I'm good at being vulnerable
And knowing how to heal
But I never seem to let myself
Tell you how I feel
And as words dry in my throat again
My blood begins to freeze
I'd write it in a song for you
So only you could see
I'm so lonely
Won't you hold me
Emily

Hold me like you did last summer
When we lived like we'd never die
I wanted you to notice
That I never felt so alive
Oh I'm falling to pieces
I can't understand
Why you never got to see
All the scars on my hand
If you lay with me here
One more day
We could just disappear

I'm good at being vulnerable
And knowing how to heal
But I never seem to let myself
Tell you how I feel
And as words dry in my throat again
My blood begins to freeze
I'd write it in a song for you
So only you could see
Oh won't you hold me, hold me, hold me
Oh won't you hold me, hold me, hold me
Oh won't you hold me, hold me, hold me
I'm on my knees
I'm so lonely
Won't you hold me
And let me be
I'm so lonely
Won't you hold me
Emily
