I tried to make this a hopeful ending. But my heart is breaking.

lyrics

Take in the air that surrounds you
(I can breathe)

My heart is breaking and I know
(I can see it now)

I tried, I swear I know I tried
(But here we are)

Somewhere in the deep
Somewhere in the shade from the time it took away
Somewhere you can go
Somewhere, "I will be there when you're looking for a way out"

You know this story doesn't end well
(But it's all I have)

My breathing stops and there's no one here to save me
(From where I ended up)

Somewhere in the deep
Somewhere in the shade from the time it took away
Somewhere you can go
Somewhere, "I will be there when you're looking for a way out"

I've had my day
I didn't know it then
But it's my mistake
You think you have time, but nothing's keeping
(And it slips away)

I've passed away
That's all I have
I have left to say
So pull the shades down
I'm still sleeping
(Here I go)

So pull the shades down
I'm still sleeping
(Here I go)

So pull the shades down
I'm still sleeping
(Please don't go)
