Breathe Lyrics

Wait
I remember water and I’m drowning, it’s so lonely yeah
I can’t even see oh fuck it I can’t even breathe
Love Me I try so hard to be free
Hate Me Me
Over 15 even breathes
I can’t do another thing
I think everyone will know what it’s all
about and they’ll wanna know the reasons why
Love Me I try so hard to be free
Hate me Me
Ya Ya I I I It’s all over me
Can’t you say what I’m gonna say?
Ya Ya I I I I can’t even breathe
Ya Ya I I I It’s all over me
Can’t you say what I’m gonna say?
Ya Ya I I I I can’t even Breathe

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.

This is off the Strangeland soundtrack of 1998 I think it's about how scary it would be to drown

Old school Sevendust is great, their newer stuff is OK, I think after Home, they kind of lost some of their edge. Either way, I saw em in concert back in '03 I think it was, and they played the longest set I've ever seen a band play, by far.

They didn't lose their edge, stevus. They just refined their sound. And I think it sounds wonderful. But to each their own.
