Machines that make me breathe, I just cant stand their terrible scream Im stumbling through smoke-filled rooms With only darkness ahead, I wish I was dead Drowned in a distance, Im so safe and sound Damn well protected from all those around Seeking the life that was taken from me Still all I see is a man on his knees
Although Im asleep, can you feel Im here? Lost in this place, screaming for you
Back on my feet when a distant light Brings me some hope and a strength that had died A doorway that speaks of the world I once left A final way out and a final way back Then a sudden change makes the light start to fade I need to run but I stumble instead The light disappears as I lay on the ground My last hope of freedom is turned into none
Will I ever speak again, love again? Will I ever leave my mind? I am trapped inside myself, far from the outside Why wont they let me die? Im tired as I lay here bleeding on the ground
Breathe (Were the machines, the only friends around Stay for a while and let us keep you alive)
Breathe
Here I am, Im lost in this place Wish I could just say goodbye But youre not around to hear my cries
Will I ever speak again, love again? Will I ever leave my mind? I am trapped inside myself, far from the outside Why wont they just let me die?
