Lyrics
A Breath of Something
So you think you know
You think you've heard all about how it works
A mind that's cold
A broken heart and that's all that hurts
No strings attached, no consequence
There's nothing left
And no, I can't speak for myself
No innocence, a life that's led by wrists that bled
And eyes that left the heart for dead
The ground makes a perfect bed
As I grasp my lungs, imagine I'm gone
And I can't remember how I've lived so long
Is it fair to think that this life was nothing more
Than a breath of sight, a breath of something
So wrong, but I'll go on just feeling nothing
Does that say something is wrong
Can you save us from this mess you made
As we curse out your name
Are we still just as much adored
I've been on the floor and I'll lay perfectly still
Can you see me, hear me
I don't want to remember anymore
But I'm not the first to break promises untold
You never said you'd save us all
So you think you know
I know
