lyrics

I've got a weight on my chest
Blood to my head
I've got the pressure of depth
On my neck
Take a deep, take a deep water breath

But why should I pretend that I've got air to breathe?
And why should I listen when you're not there for me?
And why should I lay down and drown?
Yeah

You can't tell me what I wanna do
You won't help me when I make it through
You can't tell me what I wanna do
Yeah

Under the cold of your skin
Wearing thin
Open you up with a pin
From within
Take a new, take a new body for a swim

But why should I pretend that I've got air to breathe?
And why should I listen when you're not there for me?
And why should I lay down and drown?

You can't tell me what I wanna do
You won't help me when I make it through
You can't tell me what I wanna do
Yeah
You can't tell me what I wanna do
You won't help me when I make it through
You can't tell me what I wanna do
Yeah

You can't tell me what I wanna do
You won't help me when I make it through
You can't tell me what I wanna do
Yeah
You can't tell me what I wanna do
You won't help me when I make it through
You can't tell me what I wanna do
Yeah
