I'm breathing again
Using up your oxygen
And everything I ever dreamed
Is further away than it's ever seemed
Each reminder turns out to be
Another stranglehold on my memory
I can't ever pause and reflect
When your hands are gripping my neck
Can't you see you're suffocating me?
I'm trying to move on
And in time the shame, it will be gone
But all the things I want to do
Are eclipsed by the things I have to
Each memory I recollect
It's just ghost for haunting the next
But I'll never be free at last
When my mind is chained to the past
Can't you see you're suffocating me?
