Trying (Failing) To Breath
"Your reasons to not love me suck."
So there, I said it
But because I love you
I won't say it
My actions are silent
My emotions are violent
"I can't breath."
but that's ok, I wont detest.
Don't you worry about me
I once won a no-breathing contest
"I'll not breath for you"
If this is what you want
Even though I don't
So there, I said it
I don't want it
I hate all of it
"Sacrifice."
That's what love is anyways, right?
I'd gladly roll the dice
and take a bullet for you twice
You don't want my life
No, you have a different asking price
"You took my lungs"
I can't breath without my lungs
No one can
It's like speaking with no tongue
So I guess I have no tongue or lungs
I can't speak, all I can do is think
And long for you, and long for air
"You are air. "
That's ok, "I'll do whatever YOU want"
You take your stupid air
You take you away from me
You take whatever you want
You took you away from me
When said you didn't want to love me
You took my lungs with you
Now my heart doesn't have anything to pump into
It just beats for no reason
"I need my lungs"
My blood is so deoxygenated
Everything is complicated
Nothing feels full, everything is empty
Nothing feels light, everything is heavy
"Maybe when you bring my lungs back
You'll bring you back"
And I'll have air back
You need to come back
Because "Your reasons to not love me suck."
Because "I can't breath."
Because "I'll not breath for YOU."
Because "Sacrifice"
Because "You are air. "
Because "I'll do whatever you want"
Because "I need my lungs"
Because "Maybe when you bring my lungs back
You'll bring you back"
Perhaps, I'll be able to breath again
