Barely Breathing by Duncan Sheik

I (1)________ what you're doing
I see it all too clear
I only taste the saline
When I (2)________ away your tears
You really had me going
Wishing on a star
But the black holes that (3)________________ you
Are heavier by far
I (4)________________ in your confusion
You were so completely torn
It (5)________ have been that yesterday
Was the day (6)________ I was born
There's not much to examine
There's nothing (7)________ to hide
You (8)____________ can't be serious
If you have to ask me why
I say good-bye
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't (9)________ the air
I don't (10)________ who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's (11)__________ the price
It's worth the price, the price that I would pay

Everyone keeps asking
What's it all about
I used to be so certain
And I can't figure out
What is this attraction
I only (12)________ the pain
Nothing left to reason
And (13)________ you to blame
Will it (14)________ change
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't (15)______________ it's (16)__________ the price
It's worth the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it (17)________ anyway

I've (18)________ to find
I may never know
Your changing mind
Is it (19)____________ or foe
I rise above
Or sink below
With every time
You come and go

Please don't
Come and go

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A (20)________ for (21)______________ day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
It's (22)__________ the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm (23)________________ it over anyway

I (24)________ what you're doing

I see it all too clear
