Lyrics:

I will try not to breathe
I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees
These eyes are the eyes of the old, shiver and fold
I will try not to breathe
This decision is mine
I have lived a full life
And these are the eyes that I want you to remember, Oh

I need something to fly over my grave again
I need something to breathe
I will try not to burden you
I can hold these inside
I will hold my breath
Until all these shivers subside
Just look in my eyes

I will try not to worry you
I have seen things that you will never see
Leave it to memory me
I shudder to breathe
I want you to remember, Oh (You will never see)
I need something to fly (Something to fly)
Over my grave again (You will never see)

I need something to breathe (Something to breathe)
Baby, don’t shiver now
Why do you shiver now? (I will see things you will never see)
I need something to fly (Something to fly)
Over my grave again (I will see things you will never see)
I need something to breathe, Oh, Oh, Oh
