Show Me How To Breathe
The fresh air, it reminds me
So does the spring-like breeze
The quadrants that I've walked through
The rustle in the trees
The world keeps turning 'round me
So smoothly I can't see
Still I'm frozen in this moment
Someone show me how to breathe
Thought I'd be gone by now
But these plans of mine have changed
This place looks so familiar
But I feel like I'm estranged
My hopes, my doubts, my fears
Are they worth being released?
The end lays on the horizon
It's seen, but never reached
Oh, it tears apart my life sometimes
But I just can't seem to leave
Can I find joy in this sacrifice?
Someone show me how to breathe
I know I've gotten better
But it hurts it's been so long
They say there's no right way to live
But I just know mine is wrong
More nights of self-destruction
And they will catch up to me
Now my fears are paralyzing
Someone show me how to breathe
Thought I'd be gone by now
But these plans of mine have changed
This place looks so familiar
But I feel like I'm estranged
My hopes, my doubts, my fears
Are they worth being released?
The end lays on the horizon
It's seen, but never reached
Oh, it tears apart my life sometimes
But I just can't seem to leave
Can I find joy in this sacrifice?
Someone show me how to breathe
Thought I'd never be done
But suddenly the time has come
What I once wished to throw away
Now suddenly I beg to stay
There's so much that I didn't say
But here and now, we're parting ways
The fresh air, it reminds me
So does the spring-like breeze
The quadrants that I've walked through
The rustle in the trees
I leave for good tomorrow
But feel anything but free
Could I somehow freeze this moment?
Someone show me how to breathe
My hopes, my doubts, my fears
Are they worth being released?
The end lays on the horizon
It's seen, but never reached
Oh, it tears apart my life sometimes
But I just can't seem to leave
Can I find joy in this sacrifice?
Someone show me how to, show me how to breathe...
Oh, it tears apart my life sometimes
But I just can't seem to leave
Can I find joy in this sacrifice?
Someone show me how to breathe
Someone show me how to breathe
