Song lyrics Hardly Breathe by Dead By Sunrise

I can't seem to focus
It's hopeless unless the sky opens
Look you in the eyes and all I see is a blur hopin
That my previous mindstate; could be resurrected
To the old me; it's like you had me injected with imperfection
How could you be so reckless? I initially meant it
Seems like you put your effort into me, what am I left with?
Nothin' but a canvas with a black and white portrait
Of me and you, in a burnin' garden of scorchin' orchards
Simple beauty that's bein torn down by your power
That constantly pounds on my soul hour after hour
Now I can hardly breathe, get rid of these memories
Continually haunting me,
Cant change who I've come to b
The darkness only ends as soon as you open your eyes
And you hope to realize that hope is cloaked in disguise
Again I look you in the eyes and all I see is a blur
But when I look in the mirror I can see who you were

Nothing I can say or do
Will take away what I've been through
What you were is what I've come to be
Nothing you can say to me
Will take away these memories
What you were is what I've come to be

(What I've come to be x2)

The sky opens wide, to swallow me again
Once I am inside, I'm lost and cant pretend
These pictures in my mind, are not a part of me
These memories hold me tight, till I can hardly breathe

I can hardly breathe (breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe...) X2


I can hardly stop the memories..

Nothing I can say or do
Will take away what I've been through
What you were is what I've come to be
Nothing you can say to me
Will take away these memories
What you were is what I've come to be

(What I've come to be x2)

(Hardly breathe)
(Memories)
(Haunting me)
(Come to be)
x2

Now I can hardly breathe, get rid of these memories
Continually haunting me
Cant change who I've come to be
x4

(I can hardly breathe.....)
(I can hardly stop the memories..)
Now I can hardly breathe, change who I've come to be
