R.e.m. - Try Not To Breathe lyrics

(berry/buck/mills/stipe) I will try not to breathe I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees These eyes are the eyes of the old, shiver and fold I will try not to breathe This decision is mine. i have lived a full life And these are the eyes that i want you to remember, oh I need something to fly over my grave again I need something to breathe I will try not to burden you I can hold these inside. i will hold my breath Until all these shivers subside, Just look in my eyes I will try not to worry you I have seen things that you will never see Leave it to memory me. i shudder to breathe I want you to remember, oh (you will never see) I need something to fly (something to fly) Over my grave again (you will never see) I need something to breathe (something to breathe) Baby, don't shiver now Why do you shiver? (i will see things you will never see) I need something to fly (something to fly) Over my grave again. (i will see things you will never see) I need something to breathe, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh I will try not to worry you I have seen things that you will never see Leave it to memory me. don't dare me to breathe I want you to remember, oh (you will never see) I need something to fly (something to fly) Over my grave again (you will never see) I need something to breathe (something to breathe) Baby, don't shiver now Why do you shiver now? (i will see things you will never see) I need something to breathe (something to breathe - i have seen things you will never see) I want you to remember
