Don't hold your breath Don't wait for me I'm not the man you wanted Don't hold your breath to watch me change I've worn this skin through every storm You tried to pull me from my shape As if I'd fit a different form You counted every flaw you found While I kept trying to stand my ground Don't hold your breath I'm not your unfinished plan You searched for someone else inside The person that I am You called it love I called it losing who I was Don't hold your breath I'm finally enough You measured me against your dreams And found me lacking every time You never saw what I could be Only what you hoped you'd find Every promise came with chains Every smile concealed your blame Don't hold your breath I'm not your unfinished plan You searched for someone else inside The person that I am You called it love I called it losing who I was Don't hold your breath I'm finally enough Love should never ask a soul To carve away its heart You kept rewriting every page Until we fell apart You wanted someone easier Someone made to please I chose the harder road instead To simply live as me Don't hold your breath There'll be no miracle tonight I'm done apologizing For surviving every fight You wanted more But I was never yours to change Don't hold your breath I'm walking out the same Don't hold your breath The man you wanted Never lived inside memore
