Struggling to keep my head afloat Apparently you need air to breathe Sweet nothings decay into burning dust And from completion I turn again incomplete In that water you don't live or die The pressure crushes your chest thin The earth rotates for everyone I see But my earth is a black pit within Heartstrings are as fragile as a feather My feathers flew away with you I'm not gonna weave them anymore They end up cut all the way through Don't touch my heartstrings if you're not planning on writing a song

Heartstrings
Struggling to keep my head afloat Apparently you need air to breathe Sweet nothings decay into burning dust And from completion I turn again incomplete In that water you don't live or die The pressure crushes your chest thin The earth rotates for everyone I see But my earth is a black pit within Heartstrings are as fragile as a feather My feathers flew away with you I'm not gonna weave them anymore They end up cut all the way through Don't touch my heartstrings if you're not planning on writing a song
