Room To Breathe
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All you want is the shadow behind me
Don't you know that it's nowhere to stand
What if I didn't call you tomorrow
Maybe you'd fall apart after that
You keep it so tight l can't stand it
Theres no room for love when it's ended
So give me Room to Breathe
The choice to stay or leave
I don't know what you need
So give me Room to Breathe
If you keep in your mind there's no future
lt makes now so much lighter to bear
If you deal with it ever so loosely
You just might shake it, it might clear the air
You keep it so tight I can't stand it
There's no room for love when it's ended
