I will try not to breathe
I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees
These eyes are the eyes of the old, shivering and told

I will try not to worry you
I have seen things that you will never see
Memory leave
I want you to remember, oh
I need something to fly
Over my grave again

I need someone to breathe, oh
Oh

I will try not to worry you
I have seen things that you will never see
Leave it to memory me
Dare me to breathe

I will try not to breathe
I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees
These eyes are the eyes
I want you to remember, oh
I need someone to fly
Over my grave again

I need something to breathe
Baby, don't shiver now
Why do you shiver now?
I want someone to fly
Over my grave again
I need something to breathe
Oh, oh, oh

I will try not to worry you
I have seen things that you will never see
Leave it to memory me
Dare me to breathe

I want you to remember, oh
I need something to breathe
Baby, don't shiver now
Why do you shiver now?
I need something to breathe
Baby, don't shiver now
Why do you shiver now?
I need something to breathe
Baby, don't shiver now
Why do you shiver now?
I will try to remember

R.E.M.

R.E.M. were an American rock band from Athens, Georgia, formed in 1980 by singer Michael Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck, bassist Mike Mills, and drummer Bill Berry.

Berry quit the band in April 1997, as they were getting together to record demos for the album Up. He was not replaced on a permanent basis, but the band used an assortment of drummers in his place.
