Breathe

You were my all

You were my everything

You needed me like water

You needed me to breathe

I gave you my heart

I gave you the best of me

But the closer I became

The less I could see

Now it stares at me

Like my reflection

It's who I want to be

Not who I was

I want to breathe again

I want to dream again

Want something beautiful

To make it all meaningful

I want to breathe

I know your pain

And it kills me to break you

But I'm waking up

And the sky's still blue

Letting go doesn't always mean you'll fall

And my storybook is better off

With pages still unwritten

And it stares at me

Like my reflection

Oh the truth you see

It cuts like a blade

I want to breathe again

I want to dream again

Want something beautiful

To make it all meaningful

I want to dare to live

Give me the chance to give

All that I have to life

And all that I am

And all of the years

We were together

Our love was for real

Nothing could measure

So the hardest part's admitting I'm better without you

We lost ourselves drowned in illusion

And we couldn't see

As we sank to the bottom

But I reached the surface

Before it could wash me away

I want to breathe again

I want to dream again

Want something beautiful

To make it all meaningful

I want to dare to live

Give me the chance to give

All that I have to life

And all that I am

All that I am

Ooh, whoa

Hmmmm
