Barely Breathing (45 Version)

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 goin', wishing on a star

The black holes that surround you are heavier by far

I believed in your confusion, you were so completely torn

It must've been that yesterday was the day that I was born

There's not much to examine, 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

Don't know who I'm kidding

Imagining you care

And I could stand here waiting

A fool for another day

I don't suppose it's worth the price

You're worth the price, the price that I would pay

And 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

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

Don't know who I'm kidding

Imagining you care

And I could stand here waiting

A fool for another day

I don't suppose it's worth the price

You're worth the price, the price that I would pay

But I'm thinking it over anyway

I'm thinking it over anyway

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

Don't know who I'm kidding

Imagining you care

And I could stand here waiting

A fool for another day

I don't suppose it's worth the price

You're worth the price, the price that I would pay

But I'm thinking it over anyway

I'm thinking it over anyway

And I know what you're doin'

I see it all too clear
