REM - Try Not To Breathe lyrics

rate me

I will try not to breathe.<br>I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees.<br>These eyes are the eyes of the old, shiver and fold.<br><br>I will try not to breathe.<br>This decision is mine. i have lived a full life<br>And these are the eyes that I want you to remember. oh.<br><br>I need something to fly over my grave again.<br>I need something to breathe.<br><br>I will try not to burden you.<br>I can hold these inside. I will hold my breath<br>Until all these shivers subside,<br>Just look in my eyes.<br><br>I will try not to worry you.<br>I have seen things that you will never see.<br>Leave it to memory me. I shudder to breathe.<br><br>I want you to remember. oh. (you will never see)<br>I need something to fly (something to fly)<br>Over my grave again. (you will never see)<br>I need something to breathe. (something to breathe)<br>Baby, don't shiver now.<br>Why do you shiver now? (I will see things you will never see)<br>I need something to fly (something to fly)<br>Over my grave again. (I will see things you will never see)<br>I need something to breathe. oh. oh. oh.<br><br>I will try not to worry you.<br>I have seen things that you will never see.<br>Leave it to memory me. don't dare me to breathe.<br><br>I want you to remember. oh. (you will never see)<br>I need something to fly (something to fly)<br>Over my grave again. (you will never see)<br>I need something to breathe. (something to breathe)<br>Baby, don't shiver now.<br>Why do you shiver now? (I will see things you will never see)<br>I need something to breathe. (something to breathe - I have seen things<br>You will never see)<br>I want you to remember.
