illijam - hold my breath lyrics

[hook]
and i’m short a best friend tonight/
and i wonder if you’ll ever return/
and every day i’m holding my breath, longing to hear from you/
but your silence is deafening, and i’m turning blue/

[verse 1]
food doesn’t have taste, i don’t sleep/
when i do i dream of you and we/
are happy like we used to be/
then i wake up to reality, i die all over again/
my friend, oh why/
remember our first date? we watched the blindside/
ironic, that that’s how we’d end/
how could i be so oblivious?/
and i never once suspected, how long had you been leaving?/
guess i noticed you were quieter but i thought it was a season/
but no, you cooled down slow, while i burned hotter/
i’m crying in the snow, i’m moaning to the father/
it was supposed to be a normal phone call, but it wasn’t/
what do you mean you’ve changed, and that you’re not in love with (me)?/
everything we built for so long?/
is just a tear-stained crater post-bomb
broken hearts sing along/

[verse 2]
i’m so torn, two of the things i most want are millions of miles apart/
more than anything i want you to be happy, but i also wanna hold your heart/
when did those two become strangers to you?/
i remember the day when they were one and the same/
what is everything to me now seem like nothing to you/
your heart is foreign to me with that same familiar face/
o god, what happened? we talked about forever together about a month ago/
she said that she’d been navigating rough seas lately; why can’t i save her from the undertow?/
and i’m hurting cuz you’re gone and i’m hurting cuz you’re hurting/
but you cringe when i care and i don’t wanna be a burden/
but how can i not care? i loved you like my wife-to-be/
these feelings won’t die inside of me/

[bridge]
please don’t leave me in the dark/
i wanna know how you are/
i don’t think you told the whole story/
holding my breath, but i’m gonna die shortly/ 2x
and i miss you, i miss you, i miss you/ 3x
please change your mind/

[outro]
i hope you understand, i can’t turn off my feelings/
god am i just waiting for them to die?/
so many words i’d like to say/
could i change your mind with a soliloquy?/
can’t believe how different things are now/
