Harness your heart and be still now
Quiet that mind that will wander
All sorts of dark alleys

Tragedy strikes your self-esteem
Constantly waiting for an ending
To all of this

She opens her eyes
Suddenly she cries
"Can we help her?
Can we help her?"
And she replies

You know, I fake it oh so well
That God himself can't tell
What I mean and why my words are
Less than parallel

With my feet
You ask me what I need
And all I really need
Is to breathe

Ah ah ah, ah ah

People, they seem so interested
Only a few get invested
With all the aches and pains

Doctor oh, doctor
Please help her
I fear she may not be breathing

Blue lips and doe eyes
That's her disguise

You know, I fake it oh so well
That God himself can't tell
What I mean and why my words are
Less than parallel

With my feet
You ask me what I need
And all I really need
Is to breathe

Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah ah ah
Ah ah ah-ah-ah ah

Give me some space to breathe
I need a little room to breathe
Give me some space to breathe
All I need is a little room to breathe

I fake it oh so well
That God can't tell
You know, I fake it oh so well
That God himself can't tell
What I mean and why my words are
Less than parallel

With my feet
You ask me what I need
And all I really need
Is to breathe
Let me breathe
