I Can't Breathe Lyrics

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Decapitating every single motion
Only to fall to my knees (to my knees)

I'm not a spectacle
I'm not alright
I'm not a fucking joke
I'm not alright

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Call me pathetic and torture me
'Cause in my mind, I can't breathe

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe

I'm suffocating every single notion
Forcing me down to my knees
I am so sacraligious, I am the whore
I'm not the superficial one you adore

I'm not a spectacle
I'm not alright
I'm not a fucking joke
I'm not alright

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Call me pathetic and torture me
'Cause in my mind, I can't breathe

You spit your insults, force suicide
I spit your insults into your eyes
You spit your insults, force suicide
I spit your insults into your eyes

I'm not a spectacle
I'm not alright
I'm not a fucking joke
I'm not alright

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Call me pathetic and torture me
'Cause in my mind, I can't breathe

I tore my eyes out

Forever Forever

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Decapitating every single motion
Only to fall to my knees (to my knees)

I'm not a spectacle
I'm not alright
I'm not a fucking joke
I'm not alright

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Call me pathetic and torture me
'Cause in my mind, I can't breathe

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe

I'm suffocating every single notion
Forcing me down to my knees
I am so sacraligious, I am the whore
I'm not the superficial one you adore

I'm not a spectacle
I'm not alright
I'm not a fucking joke
I'm not alright

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Call me pathetic and torture me
'Cause in my mind, I can't breathe

You spit your insults, force suicide
I spit your insults into your eyes
You spit your insults, force suicide
I spit your insults into your eyes

I'm not a spectacle
I'm not alright
I'm not a fucking joke
I'm not alright

I tore my eyes out
I slit my wrists to breathe
Call me pathetic and torture me
'Cause in my mind, I can't breathe

I tore my eyes out

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
