[Verse 1]
I drew a picture like a sound
A broken image of myself
It turns around and mirrors me
Then fades out

This empty image of myself
A different view from someone else
It turns and slowly counts to three
Then it fades out, then fades out

[Chorus]
Why can't I be myself?
I'm dying
Still I need someone to help me out this time
So I'll never suffocate again

[Verse 2]
This lonely bed that I have made
I pray that nothing stays the same
Forget these useless memories
Let them fade out, let them fade out

[Chorus]
Why can't I be myself?
I'm dying
Still I need someone to help me out this time
To stop me from breathing you in
So I'll never suffocate again

[Bridge]
Let me be, just let me be
Just let me be, just let me be
Just let me be, just let me be
Just let me be, let me be myself

[Outro]
Oh, stop me from breathing you in
So I'll never suffocate again
