Do you spend your days counting the hours you're awake?
And when night covers the sky you find yourself doing the same
There's a burden you've been bearing
In spite of all your prayers
There's a light turns off inside your heart
Can you remember what it's like to care?
Knees are weak
Hands are shaking
I can't breathe
So, give me the drug
Keep me alive
Give me whats left of my life
Don't let me go
Pull this plug
Let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free
Don't let me go
The trail of crumbs you left somehow got lost along the way
If you never meant to leave
Then you only had to stay
But the memories that haunt us
Are cherished just the same
As the ones that bring us closer to the sky
No matter how grey
Yet I fall, through these clouds
Reaching, screaming
Give me the drug
Keep me alive
Give me what's left of my life
Don't let me go
Pull this plug
Let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free
Don't let me go
This grip loosens but it never breaks
We carry nothing, but a name you will forsake
Your words are always there to break my fall
In them I find the comfort to see through it all
Guide me through uncharted waters
Before we lose our way again
Will you be my compass
Until forever, until forever ends
Knees are weak
Hands are shaking
I can't breathe
So, give me the drug
Keep me alive
Give me what's left of my life
Don't let me go
Pull this plug
Let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free
Don't let me go (x3)
And when night covers the sky you find yourself doing the same
There's a burden you've been bearing
In spite of all your prayers
There's a light turns off inside your heart
Can you remember what it's like to care?
Knees are weak
Hands are shaking
I can't breathe
So, give me the drug
Keep me alive
Give me whats left of my life
Don't let me go
Pull this plug
Let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free
Don't let me go
The trail of crumbs you left somehow got lost along the way
If you never meant to leave
Then you only had to stay
But the memories that haunt us
Are cherished just the same
As the ones that bring us closer to the sky
No matter how grey
Yet I fall, through these clouds
Reaching, screaming
Give me the drug
Keep me alive
Give me what's left of my life
Don't let me go
Pull this plug
Let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free
Don't let me go
This grip loosens but it never breaks
We carry nothing, but a name you will forsake
Your words are always there to break my fall
In them I find the comfort to see through it all
Guide me through uncharted waters
Before we lose our way again
Will you be my compass
Until forever, until forever ends
Knees are weak
Hands are shaking
I can't breathe
So, give me the drug
Keep me alive
Give me what's left of my life
Don't let me go
Pull this plug
Let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free
Don't let me go (x3)
