Lyrics: bôa - Duvet And you don't seem to understand A shame you seemed an honest man And all the fears you hold so dear Will turn to whisper in your ear And you know what they say might hurt you And you know that it means so much And you don't even feel a thing I am falling I am fading I have lost it all And you don't seem the lying kind A shame that I can read your mind And all the things that I read there Candlelit smile that we both share And you know I don't mean to hurt you But you know that it means so much And you don't even feel a thing I am falling I am fading I am drowning Help me to breathe I am hurting I have lost it all I am losing Help me to breathe I am falling I am failing I am drowning Help me to breathe I am hurting I have lost it all I am losing Help me to breathe I am falling I am failing I am drowning Help me to breathe I am hurting I have lost it all I am losing Help me to breathe
