Barely Breathing
I know what you're doing, I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears
You really had me going, wishing on a star
But the black holes that surround you are heavier by far
I believed in your confusion, you were so completely torn
It must've been that yesterday, was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine, there's nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious if you have to ask me why
I say goodbye
'Cause I am barely breathing, and I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, you're worth the price
The price that I would pay-yeah, yeah, yeah
And everyone keeps asking, "What's it all about?"
I used to be so certain now I can't figure out
What is this attraction? I only feel the pain
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame
Will it ever change?
'Cause I am barely breathing, and I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, you're worth the price
The price that I would pay-yeah, yeah, yeah
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah
I've come to find, I may never know
Your changing mind, is it friend or foe?
I rise above or sink below
With every time, you come and go
Please, don't come and go
'Cause I am barely breathing, and I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, you're worth the price
The price that I would pay-yeah, yeah, yeah
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, I know what you're doing
I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline when I kiss away your tears
You really had me going, wishing on a star
But the black holes that surround you are heavier by far
I believed in your confusion, you were so completely torn
It must've been that yesterday, was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine, there's nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious if you have to ask me why
I say goodbye
'Cause I am barely breathing, and I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, you're worth the price
The price that I would pay-yeah, yeah, yeah
And everyone keeps asking, "What's it all about?"
I used to be so certain now I can't figure out
What is this attraction? I only feel the pain
There's nothing left to reason and only you to blame
Will it ever change?
'Cause I am barely breathing, and I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, you're worth the price
The price that I would pay-yeah, yeah, yeah
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah
I've come to find, I may never know
Your changing mind, is it friend or foe?
I rise above or sink below
With every time, you come and go
Please, don't come and go
'Cause I am barely breathing, and I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding, imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price, you're worth the price
The price that I would pay-yeah, yeah, yeah
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah
Well, I know what you're doing
I see it all too clear
