Everything You're Breathing For

After all your dreams are done and paid for

When there's nowhere left to run and nobody worth staying for

And though I hate to be the one to baer such news

Seems like you're set to be the only one to lose

Little one, how can it be

You hurt yourself but do not see

And everything you're breathing for

Will let you down and leave you sore

I was bound to the bed post

I was doing everything I could to make a change

Caught a sigh of indifference

When a certain feeling struck so strange

While it was my wish to keep you from such pain

I regret to say my efforts were in vain

Little one, how can it be

You hurt yourself but do not see

And everything you're breathing for

Will let you down and leave you sore

You're sad, sad

Can't go without

You do it to yourself

So you can save your doubt

Little one, how can it be

You hurt yourself but do not see

And everything you're breathing for

Gonna let you down and leave you sore

Little one, how can it be

You hurt yourself but do not see

Your friends will hang you out to dry

They'll scrape your knees

And baby make you cry

Everything you're breathing for

Will let you down and leave you sore

Little one, how can it be

You hurt yourself But do not see
