Again, this is about being trapped. You can't find a way to live, you are confused and just overwhelmed.

It feels like you're suffocating.

Suffocating

Gasp for breath and it’s not there

Clammy skin, eyes turned to stone

Try to look around, but I’m stuck in place

Take it in I just can’t breathe

I’m suffocating drowning I can’t breathe

Can’t stay here I’m in danger of fear

Need to be strong but the world is pressing down

And I’m suffocating

Drowning in sheets in the hospital beds

Blood all over death near and far

Can’t reach the top I’m stick down low

Feeling around I’m going down

I’m suffocating drowning I can’t breathe

Can’t stay here I’m in danger of fear

Need to be strong but the world is pressing down

And I’m suffocating

It clutches at your lungs

It stops your breath

Trying to gasp for air but nothing comes up

To a point you welcome death, life is way too hard

I’m suffocating drowning I can’t breathe

Can’t stay here I’m in danger of fear

Need to be strong but the world is pressing down

And I’m suffocating

And your rock is gone,

Tugged out from under

Hard to stand, hard to stay alive

Hard to not just break down and cry

I’m suffocating drowning I can’t breathe

I nearly lost the one who’s closest to me

Hard to stay strong when your love is gone

Hard to stay alive when you can’t open your eyes

I’m suffocating drowning I can’t breathe

I’m suffocating drowning shutting down

I’m suffocating drowning can’t turn it around

I’m suffocating drowning open your eyes

I’m suffocating
