Rather By John Carter

I'm all tapped out
Hollowed out inside
Bleeding out my purpose
Drowning in my pride

I'm crying out
Begging you to stay
Feeling out my lifeline
Fading into grey

Chorus:
I'd rather die in my world
Than live in yours another day
I can't keep it up this way

I'd rather lie to this girl
Than sit in silence all along
I can't write another song


If I were a better man
I'd sing to you today
But better men than I
Have often fought away dismay

Leading up to never
And boiling down to nothing
I thought that I was right
I always thought that you were bluffing

(Chorus)

I'd rather die
Than live alone
I'd rather cry
These tears of stone

I'd rather lie
Than quiet down
I don't want to swim without you
I like to think I'd rather drown

(Chorus)
