In the beginning it was worth this
Do the worst, feel complete
Passing standards others meet

(What we do best)
Now perfect endings make you anxious
Heavy head, a colder sweat

Leaving nothing here, nothing to regret

Why am I still suffocating

Constantly devastated just to stay alive
Why am I still suffocating
Constantly devastated just to stay alive


I miss the old days that we murdered
They're so far gone, out of reach

Watch 'em fade with summer's heat
(Well it goes like this)
Without a break from this distraction

I need a change, a different scene
A new approach to coming clean


Why am I still suffocating
Constantly devastated just to stay alive
Why am I still suffocating

Constantly devastated just to stay alive

Still searching for a back door out of here

Reassured that old friends will reappear
Why am I still suffocating
Just hold your breathe deep and I'll keep waiting

(x2)

Why am I still suffocating

Constantly devastated just to stay alive
Why am I still suffocating
Constantly devastated just to stay alive
