Carry Me Away With You

[Verse 1]
It was supposed to be me and you against the world
Now I’m standing here alone
Watching you fade into the darkness
Like a light I can’t hold

We had plans, we had dreams
Built a life inside our heads
You said you’d love me no matter
Now I’m holding onto words you said

[Pre-Chorus]
You were the rock I leaned on
Now the ground beneath me moves
Every step feels like I’m slipping
With everything to lose

[Chorus]
Carry me away with you
Don’t leave me standing here
If you’re drifting into the darkness
Then pull me near
It was always me and you
Fighting through it all
I can’t face this world alone
If you let yourself fall

[Verse 2]
There’s a distance between us.
And I can’t close the space
You say you feel so alone there
While I’m breaking in this place

I want to be right beside you
Hold you through the pain
But I’m trapped behind this distance
Watching hope just drain away

[Pre-Chorus]
I used to feel so strong
Now I’m barely holding on
You’re not fighting 
You’re already gone

[Chorus]
Carry me away with you
Don’t leave me behind
If you’re calling out to the darkness
Take me this time
It was always me and you
Standing side by side
I can’t face this world alone
If you say goodbye

[Bridge]
What will I become
When you leave this world and me?
A shadow of the girl you loved
Or someone I won’t recognize to be

You’re begging for the silence
While I’m screaming for your stay
I’d give every breath I have
Just to keep you here one day

[Breakdown]
It’s draining me to watch you fade
Like I’m losing you in slow motion
I’m reaching through the distance
But I drown inside this ocean

[Final Chorus]
Carry me away with you
Don’t let go of me
If you’re slipping through the darkness
Take my soul, let it be
It was meant to be us two
Against everything we knew
If you’re leaving this world behind
Carry me away with you

[Outro]
It was supposed to be me and you against the world…
Now I’m just here…
Calling out to you
Hoping somehow you still hear
Don’t go alone…
Don’t go without me
