My Breath

Well, here comes round three, serving me nothing but lies.
How could I see you differently to them other guys? 
I thought I was finally loved, I’m nothing but entertainment.
Why do I still look at you in such amazement?

I have latched onto you, with a fear of letting go.
How much you mean to me, is something you could never know.
You have no idea how much my heart is breaking, yet my breath is something you are somehow still taking. 

You call me beautiful and my eyes light up with joy. 
I suddenly forget, that you are still just a boy. 
You don’t mean this, but you continue to drop by and steal my kiss. 
Clueless to the fact, that you are playing another one of your sick games.
Yet I fall in love all over again, when your lips slip out my name. 

But I guess I am the only one to blame, I understand why you could never feel the same. 
I am too open, feel love too deeply.
I love too hard and have become so needy.
How could you ever love a hopeless romantic? 
But there is this seed, this seed that you have planted. 
It’s beginning to grow out of control, your love has touched me and consumed me whole. 

Why don’t you just give it a rest? 
Please, I beg, that is my one request. 
If I’m not on your mind or appearing in your dreams, a blind man could see exactly what that means.
Stop feeding me the false hope, if you don’t stop soon I won’t be able to cope. 
You have crumbled my love down, smothered it in the dirt.
There’s nothing left of me, my heart has been dissolved by hurt.

So why don’t you quit now, go ahead I’ll let you take your final bow. 
But don’t come crying to me when your heart one day breaks, because when that day comes, my breath will be something you can no longer take.
