I never got to breathe
All I ever wanted was to breathe
You wouldn’t let me, you wouldn’t let me livc
All I wanted to do was live my life
My own life
I can’t take this pressure
Your perfectly flat world on my shoulder
I carry all your weight as you sit on top of your world
I am so below you
I am so far down
So far gone
All I ever wanted was a chance to stand
A chance to fall
I cannot live this way anymore
I leave this world on my knees, the same way I began
The weight crushes me and my lungs exhale
I held my breathe waiting for your permission too long
All I ever wanted was to breathe and now,
too late,
too bad,
My life of conformity screwed the only chance to breathe I had
