Breathe, Desperately

I was once a quiet boy Cleaning out my wounds but I Never could keep my mouth shut When I needed to I could try to pry it loose But the stone won't move And I wanna try to rip it out But I've grown to love this thing too much Have I become the man that I hated once Or have my thoughts become clouded By things I used to fear the most? And is my heart full of the ashes I heard about? Have I become the missing person I've been trying to get you all to forget? Baby don't lie now, baby don't lie now Baby don't lie now, cover your eyes now Baby don't lie now, baby don't lie now Baby don't lie now, cover your eyes now We breathe so desperately As if it's the only thing we need And we don't care if it's not Breathing honestly We're burning our lungs with it And we don't care We don't care at all When you breathe the air It tastes like medicine And overwhelming days Are nothing that I can't hide When you walk alone you think such foolish things And so disappointed we are With no one around to love Baby don't lie now, baby don't lie now Baby don't lie now, cover your eyes now Baby don't lie now, baby don't lie now Baby don't lie now, cover your eyes now Baby don't lie now, baby don't lie now Baby don't lie now, cover your eyes now Baby don't lie now, baby don't lie now Cover your eyes now We breathe so desperately As if it's the only thing we need And we don't care if it's not Breathing honestly We're burning our lungs with it And we don't care We don't care at all
