Reasons I can’t breathe

Oh yes I know, all the reasons I’m broken, and its been over 2 years and I just need, I just need time
All of the ways, my brain holds on to the scars that open every time that I try to love

And I hate all these reasons I cant breathe
And my body’s gut reaction to human affection
And I wait for the day that I don’t feel
Like my mind is just a sinking ship, out on the sea

And I’ve got, so much love inside me but I can’t let it free and just need, I just need time
All of these years, of work and therapy have done next to nothing and I just need, I just need time

And I hate all these reasons I can’t breathe,
And my instinct to withdraw inside and hide forever
And I wait for the day that I dont feel like this love is just fucking killing me

And all of this time, hasn’t healed anything
And all of these songs are just temporary things
And all of these words, well they never meant a thing
Like all of this love that’s just festering inside of me

And I hate all these reasons I cant breathe
And my body’s gut reaction to human affection
And I wait for the day that I don’t feel
Like my body’s just a sinking ship

And I hate all these reasons I can’t breathe,
And my instincts to withdraw inside and hide forever
And I wait for the day that I don’t feel like this love is just fucking killing me
