Save My Breath

Always the nervous flyer

She's tapping on the glass

Certain my conviction

In this vessel that we've built to last

So when a chip formed from her finger

To spidery cracks

And when the shards blew clear off our wings

To clouds blowing past

I never said

I gotta face it

No way to fix it

Head won't erase it

I gotta save my breath

Alarms that pierce the chaos

Stomachs in our throats

Flip open a magazine

And perplexed when from my hand it's blown

When will I hear the chime

To start off our day

Squeeze the hand that broke us open

'Til it slips away

Isn't it you I count on to get me

Through this divide

As we tumble

When you wonder what I had left

Know that I tried

Somehow I wish you will

But

I gotta face it

No way to fix it

Head won't erase it

I gotta save my breath

I gotta face it

No way to fix it

Head won't erase it

I gotta save my breath

Feels like a fall to Hell

Scattered we find ourselves

I know you're not here to tell

But somehow I wish you well
