I breathe easy when you're away That's how I want it to stay I know if you come back I'll slowly waste and fade to black You shut out my light Cover my mouth, drown me in night Strip off my name and who I am To you I'm fearful to stand You coax me up to tear me down Not a single soul hears a sound I know if you come back I'll slowly waste and fade to black

If you come back..
I breathe easy when you're away That's how I want it to stay I know if you come back I'll slowly waste and fade to black You shut out my light Cover my mouth, drown me in night Strip off my name and who I am To you I'm fearful to stand You coax me up to tear me down Not a single soul hears a sound I know if you come back I'll slowly waste and fade to black
