Don't Breathe For Me

Caught in a lie, pack up your act, sand the soles off your shoes
When you expect to listen for birds who never seem to you
Like they were sideways in intricate time change
Changing you

Why would you breathe for me
If it's not me you're breathing for?
Why would you kill for me
It's not me you're living for?

Following stride, take me alive, take me as far as you
Out on the edge, a tentative best I could admit to you
But you're falling backwards, stretching and shattered
I'm shattered too

Why would you breathe for me
If it's not me you're breathing for?
Why would you kill for me
It's not me you're living for?

Why would you breathe for me
If it's not me you're breathing for?
Why would you kill for me
It's not me you're living for?
