Holding My Own
(c) Jennifer Vazquez

I'm taking the steps,
reaching for the next
Sunrise, sunset
And I'm standing still
so my body can breathe in the thrill,
I'm back to holding my own

So I'll take my bags
and my memories
I'll leave without a sound
You'll hardly believe
the door had ever been open before
The tides have turned,
I only learn from my own fall

I'm taking the steps
reaching for the next
Sunrise, sunset
And I'm standing still
so my body can breathe in the thrill,
I'm back to holding my own

Took a chance,
I leaned on you for a while
thinking you'd be kind
But I looked into your eyes,
they turned from grey to black to blue
And I can't believe it was me holding on,
not you

Chorus

So here's to the lies
that kept me high
The shattered ties
You know you're living two separate lives

Chorus
