I hold my breath
And wait
For the other shoe to drop
I heard the words
You were scared and alone
You thought I had left you
You should know better
I heard you were lost
Hanging by a thread
Caught in the crossfire
Of the emotional wars
In your head
Now I am waiting
For the other shoe to drop
Hoping to return
Before you are gone
I am trying to come back
From this world
So beyond my control
And I am full of dread
Of what news may be
Waiting upon my return
I am holding my breath
Hanging by a thread
Caught in the crossfire
Of the things in my head
I will return
I won't be gone long
Please don't leave me
Please don't let go
We are hanging by threads
Caught in the crossfire
Of the things in our heads
