BREATHE

I'm lying here,
trying to breathe.
You left last night,
it's something
I still can't believe.
You said goodbye,
and you didn't know,
I was trying hard not to cry.

And I'd wake up,
to the thought
that you were never coming back...

That you were never coming back.

And it's so hard to breathe,
whenever you're here
and whenever you're gone.
But you don't even know
that you do this to me.
How it scares me that
you're happy,
when I feel like I'm alone.

So I hear you're happy
over there,
And I guess I'm just
holding back the tears,
just so you wouldn't see.
I know I'm not
supposed to feel
like you belong with me.
I know that it's wrong,
I know that it's selfish.
To wish that you and I
would just be...

And it's so hard to breathe,
whenever you're here
and whenever you're gone.
But you don't even know
that you do this to me.
How it scares me that
you're happy,
when I feel like I'm alone.

I try to take a step back,
get you out of my mind.
How the hell can I do that,
while you're still in my life.
And you're not even aware,
you're happy with those other girls,
it's as if you never even cared...
about the girl that always used to be there.

You've fallen in love,
with someone else.
And you don't know that it kills me
to have to wish you two
all the best.
I guess it's sort of my fault,
but I can help but wish...
that you would think of me too.
The way that I think about you...

And it's so hard to breathe,
whenever you're here
and whenever you're gone.
But you don't even know
that you do this to me.
How it scares me that
you're happy,
when I feel like I'm alone.

It's so hard to breathe,
whenever you're here.
Whenever you're gone.
