Breathless

27 Oct 2002

Do you ever get the feeling you’re drowning like an elephant is on your chest
Do you ever get the feeling you’ve found where the rainbow meets the dust
And I wouldn’t mind losing my lungs to you in exchange for a rib
And I would give all of my power if death would lose its grip
I tell you I’d give it all for more but I’ve given more for less
If I am clay without your breath with you I am breathless

Do you ever get the feeling you’re falling and you’ll never hit the ground
Do you wonder then if you were screaming would you even hear the sound
I still remember how you punched right through like I was paper thin
Drained me dry until all that was left was the stain of my own sin
I tell you I’d give it all for more but I’ve given more for less
If I am clay without your breath with you I am breathless

Do you ever get the feeling of hands around your neck
Do you wonder if surrender is a way to escape death
You and I together are the anvil and the steel
And we are at eternal war like a spoke and a wheel
I tell you I’d give it all for more but I’ve given more for less
If I am clay without your breath with you I am breathless
