Almost Over - Eisa Davis

For all you know we're broken pieces I'm finding it hard to live With something that won't last For all you know You're still my weakness I'm finding it hard to Fake a smile that I don't have Hold on I've got a feeling like this is almost over Hold on I've got a feeling like we're almost done We don't need this anymore We don't need this anymore We're both waiting for the moment When one or the other Cuts the light and locks the door But in this limbo where we're frozen We're not going anywhere We're not who we were before Hold on I've got a feeling like it's almost over Hold on I've got a feeling like we're almost done We don't need this anymore We don't need this anymore We don't need this anymore We don't need this anymore I've given everything I've given everything I've given everything And it's over I've given everything I've given everything I've given everything And it's gone Hold on I've got a feeling like it's almost over Hold on I've got a feeling like we're almost done We don't need this anymore We don't need this anymore We don't need this anymore We don't need this anymore Hold on I've got a feeling like this is almost over
