2.Try not to breath

i will try not to breathe
i can hold my head still with my hands at my knees
these eyes are the eyes of the old shiver and fold

i will try not to breathe
this decision is mine i have lived a full life
and these are the eyes that i want you to remember oh

i need something to fly over my grave again
i need something to breathe

i will try not to burden you
i can hold these inside i will hold my breath
until all these shivers subside
just look in my eyes

i will try not to worry you
i have seen things that you will never see
leave it to memory me i shudder to breathe

i want you to remember oh you will never see
i need something to fly something to fly
over my grave again you will never see
i need something to breathe something to breathe
baby don't shiver now
why do you shiver now i will see things you will never see
i need something to fly something to fly
over my grave again i will see things you will never see
i need something to breathe oh oh oh

i will try not to worry you
i have seen things that you will never see
leave it to memory me don't dare me to breathe

i want you to remember oh you will never see
i need something to fly something to fly
over my grave again you will never see
i need something to breathe something to breathe
baby don't shiver now
why do you shiver now i will see things you will never see
i need something to breathe something to breathe i have seen
things
you will never see
i want you to remember
