Temporary Lungs

How long could I survive deep under the sea

Defined by the water, buried by defeat

There is no other way but to let myself sink

And the current will carry me down

And I know what it's like to drown

In the ocean of your mind

Why don't you swim by my side

And fill my temporary lungs

Every breath takes a piece of me

With every breath I waste away

And I'm sinking like a stone

But the absence of your touch

Is stronger than I'll ever be

We lived our lives

Passing by

Deep under the sea to mortify

With my last breath

I will redeem myself

I'm not worth your embrace

But only you can fill my

Temporary lungs

If I could

I still would

Give the air to you

I would give the air to you

Fill my temporary
