You were my lungs
But also my smoke
Helping me breathe
but choking me out
Tell me you love me
Stop catching your tongue
I'll be your lungs
If you'll be my breath
In and out, in and out
Tell me you love me
TELL ME YOU LOVE ME
Stop hiding behind your emotional wall
I want to help you
Help you breathe again
Help you love again
TELL ME YOU LOVE ME
I can't breathe
You're suffocating
You're destructive
You're tearing me apart
You're an blind
My heart wants to love
I'm breaking
Your tongue is caught
Tell me. Tell me. Tell me.
My lungs are empty
and yours are so full
Mouth to mouth
Surrendering my breath
Why must I die for you to survive?
I'll be my lungs
And you be yours
In and out, in and out
