You can tell me to stop You can tell me to breathe And you can tell me in gets better. But can you tell me how to stop when the clock will never know a pause or a simple held in breath. But can you tell me how to breathe when your lungs swallow your throat. But can you tell me how it will get better when something so permanent is in the form of a clock without a throat.

You can’t.
You can tell me to stop You can tell me to breathe And you can tell me in gets better. But can you tell me how to stop when the clock will never know a pause or a simple held in breath. But can you tell me how to breathe when your lungs swallow your throat. But can you tell me how it will get better when something so permanent is in the form of a clock without a throat.
