Lyrics

I can't breathe It's killing me now I'm drowning in rivers of tears I'm smothering, I smother for the rest of my years Because I can't breathe Because I can't breathe Tempted to lay the world at her feet And not to take her crown Deja vu, a torrid heart Set composure down But the last thing that I can remember Is that hope is not just a word But I'm drowning in oceans of ember My suffering unheard I can't breathe It's killing me now I'm drowning in rivers of tears I'm smothering, I smother for the rest of my years Because I can't breathe Because I can't breathe My oh my, I pray for a house In the name of the Lord Why oh why? Here comes my spouse A shade early, aboard But the last thing that I can remember Is that hope is not just a word But I'm drowning in oceans of ember My suffering unheard I would rather lay my head In God's hands than in this man's Temper justice with mercy Is all I want, is all I need I can't breathe It's killing me now I'm drowning in rivers of tears I'm smothering, I smother for the rest of my years Because I can't breathe Because I can't breathe
