I cannot breathe, the first time you ask me to leave I cannot sleep, my knees keep trembling and I feel so weak My stomach is pulling me in and out of my mind I'm loosing myself in sickness and in fray All I wanted is to be okay, till death rip me apart I cannot close my eyes, I'm melting inside I kept hearing words, letters, numbers and voices I needed time, space and the unknown pull me back up throw me out throw me up let me out breathe in and spiral me out this needs to stop I cannot breathe, the first time you ask me to leave I was staring right back at you staring deep into those eyes so deep, that I cannot let this happen How can I let this celestial beauty pass by I want to dive deep inside those binary eyes Explore the undiplomatic universe I'll shoot myself into flare Wander in every unknown galaxies Watch the all the stars explode all the black holes implode Watch us our soul perform the ablation I'll ride the Oort Cloud Navigate every quadrant Jump from planet to planet And discover the hidden truth about those eyes those psychotic and hypnotic eyes Why would you not let me in? Inside those beautiful head of yours? Now, I cannot breathe again, and again, and again and again None of us can leave, Neither of us can escape My body's starts shaking My head is all over the place I cannot breathe, when you ask me to leave This hands keeps writing about a distant memory from the future the words were: "This is not happening, this is only exist in your head, those little voices are your worst enemy and hey guest what? your best friend. They exist so you can live, they creep at night to tell yout to sleep But you're so afraid of them that's why you can't sleep" I got up went to the bathroom sink splash some water on my face I look in to the mirror I stare at it and for the longest time I look at my face and I said: "You can leave"
