Hard to Breathe

[Verse 1]
Heavy heart, in the deep too long, can't swim,
Breathin' water, lungs tight, no space within,
His love a lighthouse, faint flicker in the haze,
But I'm tangled in shadows, lost in my maze.
[Bridge]
Fingers reach but I retreat, grip fades soon,
Whispers sound softer than the pull of the moon,
Pain’s the tide, high waves in my ear scream,
A love I can't feel, like watching a dream.
[Chorus]
I know he’s there but it’s hard to breathe,
Submerged in these tears, caught underneath,
His arms wide open, I can't find the shore,
Drowning in myself, can’t take love no more.
[Verse 2]
Your words are a language my pain can't decode,
Still in my mind, echoes replay, overload,
You’re steady in the storm, my compass, my lines,
But I’m lost in the wind, between fault and signs.
[Chorus]
I know he’s there but it’s hard to breathe,
Submerged in these tears, caught underneath,
His arms wide open, I can't find the shore,
Drowning in myself, can’t take love no more.
[Verse 3]
Tell me the cure when the virus is me,
When your love’s like sunlight but I stop it with debris,
Walls too high, I constructed my tomb,
You're fighting my shadows but I light my own gloom.
