Don't Stop Breathing

Coretta Scott


This is the hardest thing I've ever had to do 
A change of attitude, my temper's getting worse 
I blame this not on you, it's not your fault 
I know it is my own, I've grown colder 

Last night you said it's tearing you apart to be my friend 
Last night you said my selfishness that heats the glass
burns your lungs but don't stop breathing

I'm tired of romantic mornings of exotic flowers 
When do scenester girls lose interest in these things?
I'll stay right here in bed, I'm not moving 
You're more than welcome to come count tiles on my ceiling

Last night you said it's tearing you apart to be my friend 
Last night you said my selfishness that heats the glass
burns your lungs but don't stop breathing

Our love affair it wasn't fair 
I treated you so badly 
I think about it constantly
Oh, our love affair it wasn't fair 
I treated you so badly
I think about it constantly 

Last night you said it's tearing you apart to be my friend 
Last night you said my selfishness that heats the glass
burns your lungs but don't stop breathing

This is no selfish game, 
I get what I want and I don't want you, you 
This is no selfish game, 
I get what I want and I don't want you, you 

Last night you said it's tearing you apart to be my friend 
Last night you said my selfishness that heats the glass
burns your lungs but don't stop breathing
