MEARA - Breathe

I like to stare at my own ceiling and find patterns in the paint I used to draw flow charts detailing all the little things I hate
I like to make up situations in my head 'til way too late way too late
I hate the way that nothing that I do is ever quite enough I don't believe in stupid daydream driven concepts like true love
I hate the way that I can't seem to keep from hating so much stuff so much stuff
I can't stop questioning grasping for clarity the sound is deafening but it's all in my head
Can I breathe for a second 'cause I'm forgetting to a lot nowadays
Can it teach me a lesson finally I'll learn to keep myself in my place
I think that I'm crazy like twice on the daily cause I don't know what to say
Can I breathe for a second can I breathe for a second can I
I keep collections of my journal entries from six years ago I act out movie scenes to my own mirror when I'm all alone
I keep pretending I've forgotten the apologies I owe that I owe
I'm like an extroverted introvert the other way around I stopped performing in my room because I thought it was too loud
I'm like a fish in an aquarium just looking for an out for an out
I make a mockery of my reality so much cacophony but it's all in my head
Can I breathe for a second cause I don't wanna hold my breath anymore
I can't see but I'm guessing that it's too late to open back up the door
I'd look for a window but I'm playing limbo and I can't get off the floor
Can I breathe for a second can I breathe for a second Can I
I can't quite figure out just what the problem is so much to think about and it's all in my head
Don't know what's wrong with me what could be wrong with me? Tell me what's wrong with me is it all in my head?
Can I breathe for a second cause I can fight but I still know that I'll lose
Can you keep me from letting myself go burning to the end of the fuse
And now I remember that I can surrender but we both know it's no use
Can I breathe for a second can I breathe for a second can I
