Blocked Airways

Lately I've been stuck on the word suffocate
And I don't know why, except I do
The thing about words is you can't take them back
The thing about you is, you just spit them out
And it leaves me beaten and bruised
But it's okay if the loads off of you

I know you've had it rough
I know life's not been good to you
But I refuse to be your reflection, I refuse to be cruel
You can't beat me down when you like
And hold me high when you feel alright
You can't rip off my skin and glue it back at night

So lately I've been stuck on the word suffocate
Cause you have such a chokehold on me
Your fingers are gripping
Your nails are digging
I'm trying to breathe but it's hard to inhale when
Your airways are blocked

I'll do it all
Whatever you need
I'll do it all
I'll bury me
Just don't let go
Completely
You're an extremist, this I see

So lately I've been stuck on the word okay
Cause I think I've had enough today
I'm writing this song to tell you don't be afraid
Lately I've been stuck on the word okay
