Lungs
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.
Listen close, before my words are froze
Numbness is setting in
Keep control and just breathe slow
There's not long before I have to go
Your fragile frame
Can't take this pain I know
If you're losing grip
There's one thing you should know
If you're suffocating and my lungs will save you,
I'll give my dying breath
I hope you'd take it
If it means I don't make it
I'd rather drown, knowing you're safe and sound
When love was young and we were strong
It felt like I gave you life
Now we're pulled by the tide
On separate sides
But the water that connects us remains
Each time we try
We always end up sinking
Two can survive on one air supply
If you're suffocating and my lungs will save you,
I'll give my dying breath
I hope you'd take it
If it means I don't make it
I'd rather drown, knowing you're safe and sound
There's no time left for us so go
Don't think just leave me here on my own
Be honest with yourself, there's nothing left here
We can't change where faith has brought us
We can't be saved from these waters
If you're suffocating and my lungs will save you,
I'll give my dying breath
I hope you'd take it
If it means I don't make it
I'd rather drown, knowing you're safe and sound
