Long goodbyes and second chances
|
Forgiving all we fight for, forgetting all we lose
|
Cause we're losing it on the way things happen
|
Doing all we do to fill up the quiet
|
Break the awkward silence consuming our lives
|
We're spending our time keeping our distance
|
And speaking trivial and trite
|
|
And I'll find some way to cut myself open, over and over again
|
And I'll find some way to bury it all
|
|
And so let's be honest because I am through holding my breath as my lungs breathe for you
|
The air is too thin inside this room
|
|
I need this like the water in my lungs
|
The drowning in silence, biting my restless tongue
|
Because we're too consumed, too shallow
|
Playing the victims, playing the innocent ones
|
|
And I'll find some way to cut myself open, over and over again
|
And I'll find some way to bury it all
|
|
And so let's be honest because I am through holding my breath as my lungs breathe for you
|
The air is thin inside this room (I'm taking my last breathe for you, this life is leaving)
|
And so let's be honest because I am through breaking my heart, as my veins bleed for you
|
The air is thin inside this room
|
|
(So go, breathe in the air, we've been gasping for air, so go breathe in everything I am)
|
|
(And so let's be honest because I am through holding my breath as my lungs breathe for you)
