Breathe

When you're trying your hardest just to make it, But the world keeps dragging you down When being stronger is just easier to talk about Distracting yourself with every little thing you can find, Because you can’t admit defeat Always so easy to talk about what’s messing with you, But this moment you feel lost in a cloud losing sleep, you remember when it was all a breeze Simple words haunt your memory Simple sentences cause you to break in a million seams You remember when hearing you’ll be ok, were the greatest words to hear? but now it’s your worst nightmare, How did you get to this point? How did all the memories pull you to your breaking point Though you can’t give up, And quitting is never an option You suck up every feeling inside, And you curl up at night Just breathe Let it all out Just breathe, Forget the words you been dying so hard to say Forget the memories that linger into the day Forget the tears that you lose on the way We are all human, We all get this way We all feel our insides sometimes turn to grey Breathe When you want to lose your ground, When you want to back down Breathe Let go of the past Let go of everything Breathe Don’t change yourself just to find your way Don’t push others away, When it's clear those are the ones that will stay Just breathe, You will see brighter days Breathe
