[Intro]

I couldn’t live this life without you


[Verse 1]

I’ve been told I’m spineless and I can’t lie

I kinda agree more when I’m on my own without you keeping me alive

I’ve been told I’m selfish, you know it’s true

I gave all I had and all I was for a dream but it don’t compare to you


[Pre-Chorus]

Now I’m a mess on the floor

A pile of skin

Nothing left anymore


[Chorus]

But you’re my backbone

I couldn’t trade anything in the world to give my backbone

I don’t like myself when I leave behind my backbone

Without you I’m a stone cold liar

My backbone

I couldn’t live this life without you


[Post-Chorus]

Holding me, holding me

You’re holding me

Holding mе up


[Verse 2]

When I don’t trust myself, becausе you know I can’t

You know driving to shows and playing songs I wrote really has a way of getting inside your head

I was losing myself, couldn’t stand up straight

I know it’s real when you rip my spine clean out my back when I try to go make a name


[Pre-Chorus]

I’m just a mess on the floor

A pile of skin

Nothing left anymore


[Chorus]

But you’re my backbone

I couldn’t trade anything in the world to give my backbone

I don’t like myself when I leave behind my backbone

Without you I’m a stone cold liar

My backbone

I couldn’t live this life without you


[Bridge]

Holding me, holding me

You’re holding me

Holding me up

I couldn’t live this live without you

Holding me, holding me

You’re holding me

Holding me up

I couldn’t live this live without you

Holding me, holding me

You’re holding me

Holding me up

I couldn’t live this live without you

Holding me, holding me

You’re holding me

Holding me up

I couldn’t live this live without you

Life without you

Life without you

Life without you

I couldn’t live this life without you


[Chorus]

Without you I’m a stone cold liar

My backbone

I couldn’t live this life without you
