[Verse 1]
Don't trust a word from them, stay far away from me
I hear their murmuring, voices that just won't leave
Brought up in chaos, I'm always craving more
Feels like I'm floating or drowning on the shore
[Chorus]
Why's it so hard to breathe, chasing down more ways to please
I'll show them all I'm stronger, not like your memories
Now that I've broken free you're not someone I need
Won't play nice any longer, so don't remember me
[Verse 2]
When a bomb doesn't work
Fix it up, make it hurt
There's no winning for a screw up
It's a good thing that she grew up, huh?
In this moment while wе stand now
Can you love this? Don't drag me down
I caught the way you lookеd at me when you saw how I'd changed
Don't treat me like that child, you gave this Jinx her name
It's only us, that's what he said to me
But what are you then? Are we still family?
The past surrounds us, I guess I'll say my prayers
And we're both drifting from that fragile life we thought was there
[Chorus]
Why's it so hard to breathe, chasing down more ways to please
I'll show them all I'm stronger, not like your memories
Now that I've broken free you're not someone I need
Won't play nice any longer, so don't remember me
[Bridge]
Is it too late to pretend
Accidents that never happened, meant there's nothing to amend
You never left me as I bled
Crashing down I've got a message that I'll send
[Chorus]
Why's it so hard to breathe, chasing down more ways to please
I'll show them all I'm stronger, not like your memories
Now that I've broken free you're not someone I need
Won't play nice any longer, guess what, I'm ready!
Why's it so hard to breathe, chasing down more ways to please
I'll show them all I'm stronger, not like your memories
Now that I've broken free you're not someone I need
Won't play nice any longer, so don't remember me
