I’m struggling to breathe
Please, please, just rescue me
My lungs feel so tight inside
I’ve lost my sight
I fear I’m blind
Because I just don’t see why
You can’t save me from my
Untimely demise.

Do you really love me?
I gasp through each breath
Are we really just good friends?
Because I really fail to see
Why you can’t accept
We’re together, you and me
But you think that getting rid
Will in turn set me free.

As we’re nearing our end
At least you hope we can still be friends
But through my sighs of greed
It’s not friendship, but love I need
And now I’m dreading what comes next
Because now I take my last breath.

Why can’t you feel what I feel?
I’m begging now, see me kneel
As I watch you watch me now
I feel a kind of pity somehow
Because you always question everything
And when you lose me you’ll have nothing.

As we’re nearing our end
At least you hope we can still be friends
But through my sighs of greed
It’s not friendship, but love I need
And now I’m dreading what comes next
Because now I take my last breath.

And now I take my last breath
So I can start and make a fresh
Beginning in life
For me and for you
I wish you all the best
As I...
Take my last breath.
