I'm Sorry for Breathing
written by Lothiriel02:19 AM 12/18/04Sorry for breathing
I couldn't tell that it was holding you back
I couldn't save what little was left
if ever there was anything to be saved at all
Sorry for breaking down again
like I do every now and then
Sorry for painting the sky with shame
everytime you say I've been good
Sorry for colouring pictures that made you think I were a child
I guess you forgot what it's like to still have an inner child to find peace with
It's not my fault you lost your way somewhere inside
Sorry for breathing
I didn't mean to knock you down and not be there to break your fall
Because I'm falling too
slowly through all that is unmoral in me
Too ashamed to admit that I can't breath on my own
Sorry when I say that you make me feel worthless
like I need to hear it over again
Sorry for pointing out that you are no more perfect than I
I can't correct your faults anymore than you can try and save mine
but you tried anyway and you made it hard to breath
I don't want to be perfect for anyone but me
I don't want to feel sorry for breathing
I didn't mean to knock you down and not be there to break your fall
Because I'm falling too
and I used you to claw my way back up again
Maybe it's all to normal to me and I can't understand what all I do wrong
but I'm sorry to say that I'm too ashamed to admit
that I can't breath on my own
I'm sorry to say
I'm sorry |
