Hey Karen - The Air We Breathe lyrics

We sit alone Everything is dark and we are on display We’re just a show Where people can control our thoughts And move our limbs We have no other place to go I told you so You brush your hair Sitting on the edge of bed we used to share I look away And pray to God to take me out of here It hurts just seeing you In such a perfect shape A happy face What do you want How long will you punish me for my mistakes Mistakes I make I made amends to please you But you have never noticed All of my suffering The pain I take We used to think What we have is special, now it’s thrown away I’ve been replaced I’m no more than disposable Collectible That you keep under your sink What do you think? We sit alone Not knowing all the right words, what do I say? How do you feel? This shouldn’t be the last time That’s how it seems Our souls are wretched and our bodies Are just debris The air we breathe Is the only thing that’s keeping me awake It can’t be fake I only wanted to belong To someone else Who’d keep me close and let me in So please just stay
