i'm still breathing

Singer:katy perry

i leave the gas on

walk the alleys in the dark

sleep with candles burning

i leave the door unlocked

i'm weaving a rope and

running all the red lights

did i get your attention

'cause i'm sending

all the signs that

the clock is ticking

and i'll be giving

my two weeks

pick your favorite

shade of black

you'd best

prepare a speech

say something funny

say something sweet

but don't say

that you loved me

i'm still breathing

but we've been

dead for awhile

this sickness has no cure

we're going down for sure

already lost our grip

best abandon ship

maybe i was too pale

maybe i was too fat

maybe you had better

better luck in the sack

no formal education

and i swore way too much

but i swear

you didn't care

'cause we were in love

so as i write this letter

and shed my last tear

it's all for the better

that we end this here

let's close this chapter

say one last prayer

but don't say

that you loved me

i'm still breathing

but we've been

dead for awhile

this sickness has no cure

we're going down for sure

oh we've been diagnosed

so let's give up the ghost

i'm still breathing

but we've been

dead for awhile

this sickness has no cure

we're going down for sure

already lost a grip

best abandon ship
