13 Jul WHEN I STOP BREATHING
When I stop breathing
Some things you just don’t forget
a painful memory never easing
and “I’m sorry” doesn’t make it disappear, no-oh…
cauz’ in the shadows… you’re still weeping
deep in your heart `n mind… lives a hurt that ever lingers
Oh why can’t I just turn it off…when it’s so… so easy for others?
I don’t know why I am the only one… seems like I’m the only one it bothers
oh-no nooo Why does it always gotta be…lovers…or fighters
Lovers or fighters… Lovers or Fighters
I hope /all things/ I can forgive
before I finally stop
I know/ it’s something/ I will at least forget
when I stop/ ~when I stop… when I stop breathing.
Some lines we should never… Ever cross
Cauz going back may not be… your say, hey.oh
Sometimes we.. we may not have a choice “to say, say noo..”
When it comes to “their way”… or your highway
Even as you cry, you still leave… or you just may… never ever…go
Why can’t we have it all…it happens? It’s not like it never happens…
But oh no… our M.O…. is to make us suffer, suffer, suffer…oh
Why is it baby…why does it always have-ta be… lovers or … lovers or fighters
Lovers or fighters… Lovers or Fighters
I hope /all things/ I can forgive
before I finally stop
I know/ it’s something/ I will at least forget
when I stop/ ~when I stop/when I stop breathing…
It will finally no longer be… lovers or fighters…lovers or fighters
I hope /all things/ I can forgive
before I finally stop
I know/ it’s something/ I will at least forget
when I stop/ ~when I stop… when I stop breathing.
