Lyrics
[strained breathing intro]
[Breathy, intimate]
I can't breathe…
Only bleed…
[Bass guitar slaps with a motif under the verse]
[Verse 1]
You call me late like nothing’s wrong
Like I’m still where you left me
I taste the words I shouldn’t say
So I let you forget me
[Muted electric guitar enters]
You're stitched into my skin
Every cut spells your name
I should’ve walked the first time out
But I stayed in the insane
[Pre-Chorus]
Every warning sign…
I pretend I never hear
Every step away from you
Just pulls me back in here
[Chorus]
I can’t breathe, only bleed
Every time you’re next to me
You take more than I can give
But you’re the only way I feel alive
I can’t breathe, only bleed
Drowning in what we could be
If this love’s a slow disease
Why do I still need it to survive?
I can't breathe….
Only bleed.
[Verse 2]
You move like mercy, talk like sin
Say my name like a prayer
But every promise you let fall
Leaves me gasping for air
I learned your chaos like a map
Every turn, every lie
Still I follow where it leads
Even knowing I’ll break inside
[Pre-Chorus]
Every warning sign…
I pretend I never hear
Every step away from you
Just pulls me back in here
[Chorus]
I can’t breathe, only bleed
Every time you’re next to me
You take more than I can give
But you’re the only way I feel alive
I can’t breathe, only bleed
Drowning in what we could be
If this love’s a slow disease
Why do I still need it to survive?
I can't breathe….
Only bleed.
[Bridge] (strip it down, then explode)
Say it straight, am I just something
You don’t want but won’t release?
Am I just a quiet habit
You come back to when you need?
(beat drops, instruments swell)
If I’m choking on you
Why’s it all I want to breathe?
[Pre-Chorus]
Every warning sign…
I pretend I never hear
Every step away from you
Just pulls me back in here
[Final Chorus]
I can’t breathe, only bleed
Every time you’re next to me
You take more than I can give
But you’re the only way I feel alive
I can’t breathe, only bleed
Drowning in what we could be
If this love’s a slow disease
Why do I still need it to survive?
[A full choir bursts into “ahs” under bass and guitar duo]
I can't breathe….
Only bleed.…
I can't breathe….
Only bleed.…
I can't breathe….
Only bleed.…
I can't breathe….
Only bleed.…
