Without you

Please stand for the National Anthem

This one's for you again,

and I know we're not on the best of terms,

but I just wanna hold you again,

and I know we've had more than words again,

but I miss you, baby

You don't know how sick I am again

My body is not stable

Such a bad attitude,

but you're still an angel

Good attributes

How am I alive without you?

Hands on the table

Almost certain I'd lose

How am I alive without you?

Please stand for the National Anthem

This one's for you again,

and I know we're not on the best of terms,

but I just wanna hold you again,

and I know we've had more than words again,

but I miss you, baby

You don't know how sick I am again

My body is not stable

Such a bad attitude,

but you're still an angel

Good attributes

How am I alive without you?

Hands on the table

Almost certain I'd lose

How am I alive without you?
