I Can't Breathe

[LooknGlass]

Lyric that needs music


(Vs)
I'm just a used chrysalis who's butterfly has flown
empty as a vacuum and twice as freezing cold
Alone as a pendulum without a clock to grace
broken as the lines that crack a tortured face

(Pre Ch)
Anguish is all I know right now
Despair that knows no depths
I'm so inconsolable
I can't catch my breath

(Ch)
I can't breathe without your breath upon me
I can't breathe without your lips to mine
I can't breathe, resuscitate me
Give me a chance to breathe just one more time

(Vs)
With harsh words as sharp as a cold razor blade edge
I cut and bled you of every tear I could dredge
Broke you like our picture I threw against the door
Then lost you like a shipwreck on the ocean floor

(Pre Ch)
Regret fills my heavy heart
Been in tears since you left
I'm so inconsolable
I can't catch my breath

(Ch)
I can't breathe without your breath upon me
I can't breathe without your lips to mine
I can't breathe, resuscitate me
Give me a chance to breathe just one more time

(Bridge)
I'm sorry for those awful things I said to you that day
There's no excuse, just the fact I was a fool
I don't deserve forgiveness but I'm asking anyway
Your love sustains me and my life depends on you

(Vs)
I can't breathe without your breath upon me
I can't breathe without your lips to mine
I can't breathe, resuscitate me
Give me a chance to breathe just one more time
