Notes About The Poem

I Can't Live Without You

Listen to poem:

I can't live without the oxygen I breathe
          I would die without this air in my lungs
I can't live without the water I need
          Oh for just one drop on my tongue
How did I make it this far
          Through my life without you here
Because just as much
            As i need these things
I need your touch
                     more than anything

I can't live without you
                  I can't breath without you
The want, this need
                              inside of me
Is driving me out of my mind
                Like days through the desert heat
Without anything to drink
                     I can't live
I can't breath
                 Without you, without you
             I've traded pleasure for pain
Bright Sunshine for rain
Though I guess I had no choice In the end
It's like trying to stay alive... Without you
, I won't survive
Might as well bury me
And be done

Oh oh oh oh
          I can't live without you
I can't breath without you
          The want, this need
inside of me
          Is driving me out of my mind
Like days through the desert heat
          Without anything to drink
I can't live
          I can't breath
Without you, without you
          Each craving for you
Digs my grave deeper
          each memory that
plays on this loop
          Makes me grow weaker and weaker

Oh oh oh oh
I can't live without you
I can't breath without you
The want, this need
inside of me
Is driving me out of my mind
Like days through the desert heat
Without anything to drink
I can't live
I can't breath
Without you, ohohohoh
…without, without you
