in time
(pause, breathe)
trying to grasp my
surroundings
trying to
hold on to it
(am i breathing or suffocating?)
dawn is breaking
the frost still lingers in the air
leaving
a vague, silverish layer
over the grass
covering it up, disguising
(don't give in, don't give in)
this, though,
my observations
are only
for passing time
(b r e a t h e)
the concrete is wet
but i won't move
i can't, i shouldn't
(silence, listen, hear it)
scenarios
bubbling up
in my head
i don't try to shake them
pull my legs towards my chest
shaking, rocking silently,
the tears stuck in my throat
(i breathe, i suffocate)
do you know the definition of addiction?

Suffocated by each breath
a sudden breakin time
(pause, breathe)
trying to grasp my
surroundings
trying to
hold on to it
(am i breathing or suffocating?)
dawn is breaking
the frost still lingers in the air
leaving
a vague, silverish layer
over the grass
covering it up, disguising
(don't give in, don't give in)
this, though,
my observations
are only
for passing time
(b r e a t h e)
the concrete is wet
but i won't move
i can't, i shouldn't
(silence, listen, hear it)
scenarios
bubbling up
in my head
i don't try to shake them
pull my legs towards my chest
shaking, rocking silently,
the tears stuck in my throat
(i breathe, i suffocate)
