Barely Breathing

I know what you’re doing,

I see it all to clear

I only taste the saline when

I kiss away your tears

You really had me going, wishing on a star

But the black holes that surround you are heavier by far

I believed in your confusion, you were so completely torn

Well it must have been that yesterday was the day that

I was born

There’s not much to examine, there’s nothing left to hide

You really can’t be serious if you have to ask me why

I say good-bye...‘

Cause I am barely breathing

And I can’t find the air

I don’t know who

I’m kidding

Imagining you care

And I could stand here waiting

A fool for another day

But I don’t suppose it’s worth the price, worth the price

The price that

I would pay

Everyone keeps asking, what’s it all about?

I used to be so certain and

I can’t figure out

What is this attraction?

I only feel the pain

There’s nothing left to reason and only you to blame

Will it ever change?‘

Cause I am barely breathing

And I can’t find the air

I don’t know who

I’m kidding

Imagining you care

And I could stand here waiting

A fool for another day

But I don’t suppose it’s worth the price, worth the price

The price that

I would pay

But I’m thinking it over anyway...

I’ve come to find

I may never know

Your changing mind

Is it friend or foe?

I rise above

Or sink below

With every time

You come and go

Please don’t come and go‘

Cause I am barely breathing

And I can’t find the air

I don’t know who

I’m kidding

Imagining you care

And I could stand here waiting

A fool for another day

But I don’t suppose it’s worth the price, worth the price

The price that

I would pay

But I'm thinking it over anyway
