One last breath..

Again..
Back at the same old conversation,
same old chains binding,
same old words and expectations,
same old rules of society,
same old feeling of being lost and sick of this world..


Even if you keep your calmness
trying to explain them
but what would the closed ears listen?
Makes you all the more sad
Makes you want to leave it all and just run away..


Give in? and do as they want you to?
but you know deep down that it wont work..
thats not what you want right now,
pushing and giving in will only make you close-off
and it will all crumble down..


So fight back? and stay firm?
even when you have no energy left,
so tired, so sick…of everything
and everyone..
this world, these people
everything seems to crush you
and drain away your energy…


If only..
If only you could go to sleep
and never wake up again..
in this world
with these people..


And all you have now is
this One last breath
before you give up..
instead of giving in or fighting back,
all you want to do is
Give up…
this life, this world…


but dunno what to do,
dunno where to go,
dunno whom to talk,
dunno how or why..
Just holding on to this last breath
before you give up…

One Last Breath – by Creed (song)

Please come now I think I’m falling..
I’m holding on to all I think is safe..
It seems I found the road to nowhere
and I’m trying to escape..

I yelled back when I heard thunder
but I’m down to One last breath..
And with it let me say,
let me say..

Hold me now..
I’m six feet from the edge and I’m thinking..
maybe six feet..
ain’t so far down..



I’m looking down now that it’s over,
reflecting on all of my mistakes..
I thought I found the road to somewhere,
somewhere in His grace..
I cried out Heaven save me,
but I’m down to One last breath
And with it let me say,
let me say…


Hold me now..
I’m six feet from the edge and I’m thinking..
maybe six feet..

ain’t so far down…
ain’t so far down…
