let me breathe

the more i fight the day

the more it drags on

and no blues can sing it away

i just gotta press on

the more you talk to me

baby

the more i cry

just leave me quickly

save me

from the darkness you provide

it's just too hard

it's just too hard to deal with

it's just too much

it's just too much to deal with

i've had enough

so hang up on my call

let me be

let me breathe

let me take control of my focus

i ain't meant to speak no more

please don't make me love you no more

let me be

let me breathe

let me get me out from under

i can't take this feeling no more

please don't make me love you no more

don't make me love you like i love you now

please

you swore you'd love me forever

but you'd rather stay away

you promised we'd be together

are you expecting me to wait?

for an imaginary day

to come and fix this pain

baby i know i tried to wait

and it's a shame gon' get to play

always ask me do you think i am

you're not gonna wipe your feet on me

just tell me straight and there'll be no mistaking

it's just too hard

it's just too hard to deal with

it's just too much

it's just too much to deal with

i've had enough

so hang up on my call

let me be

let me breathe

let me take control of my focus

i ain't meant to speak no more

please don't make me love you no more

let me be

let me breathe

let me get me out from under

i can't take this feeling no more

please don't make me love you no more

don't make me

don't make me love you like i love you now

you know that i don't feel right without you

and you kind of like the option

of falling back into my love

whenever you feel like

way down

in the shadows

i can make out

just a creak of light

but the window is just to hot

freedom's asking me why i can't make my mind

why can't i make it?

why you're holding on?

why you're holding on to me?

let me be

let me breathe

let me take control of my focus

i ain't meant to speak no more

please don't make me love you no more

let me be

let me breathe

let me get me out from under

i can't take this feeling no more

please don't make me love you no more

you gotta let me go now

let me move on

let me be

let me breathe
