breathe

i never thought that i could beat you on your own game
wrap you up inside a pill and swallow you whole
you know it, you feel it, i'm over you now
you're lost and found you'll get by somehow

all that you can't do is bend over the rules of life
too bad that you can't swim 'cause you're too afraid to dive
but you can breathe

all i want, all i need is just a little more
and that's all you can't give because your heart is sore

you stood me up with words of heartache and despair
i never thought that i would give a damn but now i stop and stare
you touch me, you move me, like no one before
you're heading home and i have nowhere to run

i think you're going out the wrong way
but i'm not gonna say it
your footsteps scar my very soul
but i'm not gonna say it
