Lyrics

I know a lot more than they think
And with the radio on, I try to go back to sleep
When all the world’s posers blow smoke in my face, I think of the love that I
can make
But I struggle so hard for each breath that I take
I get so sick that I can hardly speak
But with my head full of pills, I try to go back to sleep
Because when you’re sad but you force up a grin anyway, it’s not hard to feel
fake
But I struggle so hard for each breath that I take
Maybe someday I’ll be at the top
And with my head in my hands I’ll try to make it all stop
Just stop
Because every time I find love I choke so hard that for weeks my body aches
But I struggle so hard for each breath that I take
Yeah I struggle so hard for each breath that I take
Yeah I struggle so hard for each breath that I…
And I struggle so hard for each breath
don’t go
be what you are
don’t be what you are
When the world throws you down in its fear, at least you can know you’ve got it
straight
We all struggle so hard for each breath that we take
Yeah we struggle so hard for each breath that we take
Yeah we struggle so hard for each breath that we take
And I struggle so hard for each breath that I take
