Hyperventilate

[Intro x2, Flyleaf Sample]
I can feel you all around me
Thickening the air I'm breathing
Holding on to what I'm feeling
Savoring this heart that's healing

[Verse 1: Adverse]
I’ve been at a loss of breathe since you left
A feeling like being socked in the chest
I wish that we’d try to make amends…
Instead of me turning purple trying to take you in
They say I should break new wind, forget you though
Waiting for you, As I grow more miserable
To you, I’m pretty much invisible…
And to me you’re everything I need to live n’ go
But…
You don’t think the same, you think I’m playin
My lungs collapse whenever someone speaks your name
Me and you, that was destined babe
I wasn’t kidding when I said you took my breathe away
But you could care less, I need oxygen…
Found my place with you, now I’m so lost again
Something’s got to give, I wish you’d take me back
But here I am breathing in this paper bag…

[Hook]
My hands are searching for you
My arms are outstretched towards you
I feel you on my fingertips
My tongue dances behind my lips for you

[Verse 2: Weirdo]
My love for you is real, no it can't be stronger
Your constricting my heart like an anaconda
You took my last breath, death touch from the reaper
I'm hyperventilating, i need to take a breather
Take a step from reality, things ain't what it seems
You were an angel, looks are deceiving...
Trapped in a nightmare, what happened to the dream?
A fairy tale, king, queen, pixy dust, everything
My mind is playing tricks on me like an evil magician
Not used to life without you it's a lethal transition
Life moving fast, man i gotta catch up
Those words 'goodbye' stole my breath like it was asthma
You promised to love me until both our last days
I promised to give you everything including my last name
At first and last glance, you took my breath away
You left me in this dark room, lonely, hyperventilating

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Adverse]
Ironically, due to my arrogance…
You and me will never breathe the same air again
Never pair our hearts, can’t share our thoughts
A psychic should’ve read our tarot cards
As far as I’m concerned, that’s a marriage lost
One that we said nothing would ever tear apart
For turning my face blue, I fuckin hate you
No matter how many times I said that it never came true
…
Because I love you, I need you
My disguise of despise is see through
I want to take a deep breathe again
I want those smile and heart filled messages
I can’t inhale since I’ve been in hell
But I’m just cryin a river, that ship sailed
No matter how promising it looks at beginning
Not every love story has a happy ending

[Hook]

[OutroX2]
This fire rising through my being
Burning I'm not used to seeing you

[Fades Out]
I'm alive, I'm alive
