Breathe

[Verse 1]
Help me, it's happening again
I wake up, gasping for air
I'm reaching for something, that's no longer there
Dreaming of pathways back to them
Knowing that it will never be

And it's suffocating me

[Chorus]
If I could just breathe, all I need to do is simply exhale and let go of you
But I don't dare breathe, instead I sink down
I hold tight to you, and let myself drown

[Verse 2]
Catch me, I'm sinking far too fast
Pulled by a darkness deep inside
And I surrender to the tide

[Chorus]
If I could just breathe, all I need to do is simply exhale and let go of you
But I don't dare breathe, instead I sink down
I hold tight to you, and let myself drown

The scars fade away and the bruises all heal
I hang to the hurt cause I can't help to feel
The pain is the only proof that you were real

Hold me as I fall through the void
Wrapped up, in its empty embrace
Along with my memories, and infinite space
Dreams of something I destroyed
Dreams that I know will not come true
Dreams of a lifetime, with you

If I can just breathe, then I can move on
I'll simply exhale and you'll be gone
But I cannot breathe, I'll never let go
The pain is the only thing, I know
