I'm Still Breathing lyrics

I leave the gas on, walk the alleys in the dark.

Sleep with candles burning, I leave the door unlocked.

I'm weaving a rope and running all the red lights.

Did I get your attention? 'Cause I'm sending all the signs.. (that)

The clock is ticking, and I'll be giving my two weeks.

Pick your favorite shade of black, you best prepare a speech:

Say something funny, say something sweet..

but don't say that you loved me.

I'm still breathing

though we've been dead for a while.

this sickness has no cure,

we're going down for sure.

Already lost a grip..

best abandon ship.

Maybe I was too pale, maybe I was too fat.

Maybe you had better, better luck in the sack.

No formal education and I swore way too much,

but I swear you didn't care cause we were in love.

So as I write this letter I shed my last tear.

It's all for the better that we end this here.

Let's close this chapter, say one last prayer..

but don't say that you loved me.

I'm still breathing

though we've been dead for a while.

This sickness has no cure,

we're going down for sure.

We've been diagnosed,

so let's give up the ghost.

'Cause I'm still breathing

though we've been dead for a while.

this sickness has no cure,

we're going down for sure.

Already lost a grip..

best abandon ship.

I'm still breathing...

I'm still breathing...
