Thin Air Lyrics[Verse]
Comatose in Tennessee
Overdosed on empathy, again
Why should I surround myself
With the nothing that could come from someone else
The feeling might not die with me
[Pre-Chorus]
Laugh along
Hope this fades
Again we pretend from the start to the end
I'm amazed
[Verse]
Tossed aside beneath the trees
Synthesized with ecstasy, I fall
Shades of Earth caress the floor
Where I stand to face my fears but I want more
You dug below to find them all
[Pre-Chorus]
Hum along
Wait, persuade
Again and again and again and again
I'm afraid
[Chorus]
I hope my blood runs out before I'm trapped
Another retraced step's been discarded intact
Before I lose myself to something I control
I got my head turned straight against the breeze
But now the air's so thin I got nothing to breathe
And now my stained glass lungs refuse to fill the hole
It's far too close to home
[Verse]
Undersold and overspent
Jealous of my ignorance, you drown
You came to ask if I was numb
To the chaos born from every broken tongue
You let my silence bring you down
[Pre-Chorus]
Something strong
Burned away
We try to amend 'till it breaks and I'm cleansed
Of the pain
[Chorus]
I hope my blood runs out before I'm trapped
Another retraced step's been discarded intact
Before I lose myself to something I control
I got my head turned straight against the breeze
But now the air's so thin I got nothing to breathe
And now my stained glass lungs refuse to fill the hole
[Bridge]
I'll breathe me when I drown
Out of breath my world stops turning, here
[Chorus]
I hope my blood runs out before I'm trapped
Another retraced step's been discarded intact
Before I lose myself to something I control
I got my head turned straight against the breeze
But now the air's so thin I got nothing to breathe
And now my stained glass lungs refuse to fill the hole
