Lyrics

It's been hard to breathe lately
I feel the air in my lungs
But there's no oxygen getting through to me
I'm like a hot air balloon just a shell of who I used to be
And sadly, when you ask if I'm fine
I'll say that I'm really happy
I'm caught in a lie
The pressure is rising
I've got to perform
I can't disappoint my dad and my mom
I stare at the crowd
The self-doubts in line
Gotta do this one more time
I'm longing for air
I feel it rush in my lungs
But there's no oxygen getting through to me
It's getting hard to breathe
Longing for air
I stand here bare foot and bare hearted
Got so much life to fill
But I am standing still
Longing for air
July flew by like nothing I had felt before
Where's the time?
I don't remember ever being bored
I'm busy always just too busy
Friends became strangers in the whirlwind
I'm feeling dizzy
Maybe summer 2009
I'm eleven years old
I'm staying home with a cold
I used to sit on my grandma's couch and watched cartoons
As mornings melted into afternoons
Now I'm 28 and the air is humid
Please look around say this world isn't ruined
Say I'm fine but going through shit
Call someone crying cause I never knew
It was so hard to not lose hope
Saw the person that I love check out some rope
I can hardly breathe or rest
I'm always stressed
My lungs compressed
And I keep wondering
Who put this weight down on my chest?
I'm longing for air
I feel it rush in my lungs
But there's no oxygen getting through to me
It's getting hard to breathe
Longing for air
I stand here bare foot and bare hearted
Got so much life to fill
But I'm standing still
Longing for air
Pressure is rising
I've got to perform
I can't disappoint my dad and my mom
I stare at the crowd and the self-doubts in line
I'm gonna do this
