Barely Breathing Lyrics - Duncan Sheik - Duncan Sheik

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 

Well, it must have been that yesterday was the day that I was born 

There's not much to examine, there's 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 

I don't know who I'm kidding, imaging you care 

And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day 

But 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 and 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 

I don't know who I'm kidding, imaging you care 

And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day 

But I don't suppose it's worth the price, worth the price 

The price that I would pay 

I've 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 

I don't know who I'm kidding, imaging you care 

And I could stand here waiting, a fool for another day 

But I don't suppose it's worth the price, worth the price 

The price that I would pay 

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