I can't breathe...
These thoughts rush to my head
Led by my own insecurities
I can't breathe and my stomach made knots
Tangled and stuck from my playing with these thoughts
And I want to stop
But I can't
I can't breathe...
I can't stop thinking of them
Thinking over and over and over
Of them all over each other
It makes me sick
Yet I still pick at these thoughts in my head
Still in pain from being misled
Thinking of things that they might of said
That weren't true
These thoughts sink to my stomach
Grow roots in my core
And I can't breathe...

Memories remind me of them
Of what they'd done
Of when I had thoughts of them being the ones
Now replaced with these
These thoughts that block air to my lungs so I can't breathe
These thoughts that tangle and tighten my stomach and won't leave
I want to believe they're better than them
But every time the phone rings
My mind starts racing
And I'm sitting here wondering who it is and why that called and what they said
And I just can't get these thoughts
These thoughts out of my head...

My lungs just feel so tight like they might close
And the feeling grows inside my stomach
Rising and turning
Making me sick
And I'm so sick of it
But it don't stop
It won't stop
It won't
I can't breathe...
And I can see the damages they still manage to cause me now
I can see them hurting cause they did me wrong
And I know that they'll try but won't be able to deal with it for long
I want to stop
But the pain, the thoughts, the worry is too strong
I can't breathe...

These thoughts rush to my head
Led by my own insecurities
I can't breathe and my stomach made knots
Tangled and stuck from my playing with these thoughts
And I wanna stop but I can't
I can't breathe...
