lyrics

i will not listen
i do not think so
it's hard to talk so
i'll just sit here quietly

and tell a few lies
it’s hard to breathe
at home, i’m all right
i watch tv watch tv watch tv watch tv

i can't do it all
last night i had a dream
your face seeps into everything
i touch - i hate it
but it's all i've got
i will try to forget you but
that’s not what i said that’s not what i’m saying

or will i
or will I
I'm trying
I'm trying to be quiet

the snow it falls down
around my head
and so instead
i will think of what you'd say to me

but you are gone
and i'm not really at my best
there’s nothing in my head that says
you’re gonna grow up soon - but when?

i like the way you are somehow
the way you breathe i don’t know how to treat you now
i am not really at my best
so i just won't think about what you said

(i like the way
you are right now
i don’t know how
to treat you now
the way you breathe
please look at me
i don’t know how
just kill me now)
