Breathe
Take me by the hand it's time to go now.
Tell me all you know I want to hear how.
I trusted you and gave you my open hand.
Then suddenly I learned you are a very bad man.
Help me please someone help me breathe.
I'm so scarred it's very hard to breathe.
If I die tonight will you remember me.
I have to get away from here to breathe.
This man trapped me and hurt me really bad.
I'm so messed up to even leave from here.
This man tricked me bad when I trusted him.
I gave him my love and now he wants to kill me.
Help me please someone help me breathe.
I'm scarred and shaking cause I can't breathe.
If I die tonight will you come find me.
I tell myself force yourself to breathe.
Why can I not escape from him?
To never see or hear of this man again.
I try to leave but he just catches me.
This is worse than my most scariest dream.
Help me please someone help me breathe.
I scream, I cry, I choke cause I can't breathe.
If I die tonight will you grieve for me.
I don't want to die I want to breathe.
