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
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
