Breathe now or never breathe again
Damn your eyes / Trying to hide your sin
We can't fool ourselves / Nor can we pretend
And I won't be the one / You choose to resent

Face down / Breathe out / Wind knocked
The way it is and always was
Chased down / Chin checked / Been clocked
The way it is and always was
Break out / Filled with false doubt / Feel the tick tock
The way it is and always was
Stand ground / Till the sand's out / Face the hard knocks
The way it is and always was

Blind devotion / Which life will you live?
Define emotion / Will it break you? / What are you willing to give?
Denied affection / Respect and unconditional love
I tried for your affection / And I gave / But it was never enough

She bled me lied and left me / I love her nonetheless
This sickness is contagious / Run away and catch your breath
