Waste My Tears

So don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being anything but yourself
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being, stop being

Target on my back, no comfort in the silence
I wait for the attack, stay sheltered from the violence
Praying I'll be okay every single night
Leaning how to like myself again will take us time

I will dance in the sun and the fire and rain
Finding myself in the light again
(Anything but yourself)

I don't wanna waste my tears
I wanna know what it's like to say I'm alright
Won't waste my tears
I just wanna know what it's like to feel more alive

Don't, don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being anything but yourself
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being, stop being

Target on my back, and all I hear are sirens

Like it's a heart attack, but I don't know how to fight this
Dealing with the pain every single night
Learning how to love myself again has been a ride

I will dance in the sun and the fire and rain
Finding myself in the light again
(Anything but yourself)

I don't wanna waste my tears
I wanna know what it's like to say I'm alright
Won't waste my tears
And I just wanna know what it's like to feel more alive

I wanna cry for the last time over this
Don't waste your tears on someone you tell
I don't wanna waste my tears
I just wanna know what it's like to feel more alive

Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being anything but yourself
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being, being
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being anything but yourself
Don't stop dreaming, don't stop breathing, don't stop being, being, being

Don't stop dreaming (don't stop), don't stop (don't stop) breathing, don't stop (dreaming) being anything but yourself
