Duncan Sheik - Barely Breathing (with lyrics)




I know what you're doing
I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline
When I kiss away your tears
You really had me going
Wishing on a star
But the black holes that surround you
Are heavier by far

I believed in your confusion
You were so completely torn
It must have been that yesterday
Was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine
Nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious
If you have to ask me why I say goodbye

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
Worth the price
The price that I would pay

Everyone keeps asking
"What's it all about?"
I used to be so certain
Now I can't figure out
What is this attraction?
I only feel the pain
There's nothing left to reason
And only you to blame
Will it ever change?

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
Worth the price
The price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway

I come to find
I may never know
Your changing mind
Is it friend or foe?
I rise above
Or sink below
With every time
You come and go
Please don't
Come and go

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
Don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
Worth the price
The price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway

I know what you're doing
I see it all too clear...

  • This song is for my ex... It's all about the 80's pop and songs like this in the 90's. Music nowadays is T E R R I B L E! Good club bangers with zero substance. A clear sign that our society is in decline, if the economy, wars, rumors of wars, etc wasn't enough of a hint... All things rise and fall. Everything has its rhythm and tides. The renesance comes after the dark ages...

  • @vans1h1i1m iam fortunate enough to have grown up in he 90's and i wont change that ...but all you have to do is stay true to you u may have shitty music but just listen to what u want make the others go damn he/shes good!

  • I wish I could've lived in a day where life was much simpler and music much better :L Like this. I hate that my generation is defined by reckless rappers who have no morals. We need Meaning back to songs and life. Someone help these kids learn...
