Everything is so huge Alone in a desert with no refuge No matter how far I go, I stay in one place I can't think straight What a cruel twist of fate I can't show my face I am so small I feel like nothing at all They all smile without a care Behind a mask, I cower Locked away in my high tower With a sigh, I ignore the tear Thousands of waves crash and churn I'm whisked away, air is what I yearn Water is in my lungs, mind, body, and soul I'm so cold, shivering in fear No one has come, no one is here The fire in me dies from lack of coal Help me, I'm drowning in air I feel as though I'm not really there What do they think? Everything is a blur I have caused this to incur Give the suicide drink Heaving and crying Smiling and lying I'm not safe on land or in sea Claws pull me down to hell Into my special torture cell "Help, I can't breath."I plea The fear and the dark have settled in No, never will I win Unstoppable, invisible forces knock me down Air, land, sea, and sky **** me as I yell why Feel the elements pull and drown It's all one storm The worst has come in an angry swarm I see safety as I take my leave No more tiring nights No more one sided fights Sighing and taking a heave Breath

Breath
Everything is so huge Alone in a desert with no refuge No matter how far I go, I stay in one place I can't think straight What a cruel twist of fate I can't show my face I am so small I feel like nothing at all They all smile without a care Behind a mask, I cower Locked away in my high tower With a sigh, I ignore the tear Thousands of waves crash and churn I'm whisked away, air is what I yearn Water is in my lungs, mind, body, and soul I'm so cold, shivering in fear No one has come, no one is here The fire in me dies from lack of coal Help me, I'm drowning in air I feel as though I'm not really there What do they think? Everything is a blur I have caused this to incur Give the suicide drink Heaving and crying Smiling and lying I'm not safe on land or in sea Claws pull me down to hell Into my special torture cell "Help, I can't breath."I plea The fear and the dark have settled in No, never will I win Unstoppable, invisible forces knock me down Air, land, sea, and sky **** me as I yell why Feel the elements pull and drown It's all one storm The worst has come in an angry swarm I see safety as I take my leave No more tiring nights No more one sided fights Sighing and taking a heave Breath
