The Reytons
Let Me Breathe
[Verse 1]
She won't listen
Such a tempered soul
Only nineteen years of age
Stuck in her way
She'll never change for anyone
A dark prison
On her bedroom floor
Tryna find a new escape
She wants to break away to ease the pain
[Chorus]
And just sail away
Go separate ways
I know you want me right by your side
Sail away
Can't take the pain
I'm blinded by the tears in my eye
[Verse 2]
You don't listen
Only had one chance
And you gave that chance away
Stuck with the blame
The shame is all but bearable
It's hand-written
You can see those marks
Where the tears fell on the page
She had to break away to ease the pain
[Chorus]
And just sail away
Go separate ways
I know you want me right by your side
Sail away
Can't take the pain
I'm blinded by the tears in my eye
[Post-Chorus]
And now the razor blade is kissing the vein
And she's fighting but it's not to survive
[Bridge]
But I'm still alive
I'm still alive
Please listen
When I tell you that I need to get away
I need to break away to heal the pain
[Chorus]
And just sail away
Go separate ways
I know you want me right by your side
Sail away
Can't take the pain
I'm drowning through the tears in my eye
[Post-Chorus]
And now the razor blade is kissing the vein
And I'm fighting but it's not to survive
