Heavy Air

If time was elastic

I would stretch it my way

Mould the clock give

Myself another day

Take a beat I need to stay wise

Without change there'd

Be no butterflies

People like you should

Be kept at arms length

Telling the truth really

Isn't your strength

You twist my words

And get them on your side

Nothing you say can be verified

This time I won't let

Them get in my way

I won't let them feel

Like I don't have a say

I need to stay calm

And not put up a fight

But it's happening

My chest is getting tight

Heavy air

No I can't breathe

The oxygen

Filled with lies

Coming right through your teeth

It's Heavy air

No I can't breathe

The weight of words that you share

I can't bear you making heavy air

I'll tell my story

Put me on the stand

No I don't need you to hold my hand

I'll take a beat now count 1 2

See I'm trying to feel brand new

This time I won't let

Them get in my way

I won't let them feel

Like I don't have a say

I need to stay calm

And not put up a fight

But it's happening

My chest is getting tight

Heavy air

No I can't breathe

The oxygen

Filled with lies

Coming right through your teeth

It's Heavy air

No I can't breathe

The weight of words that you share

I can't bear you making

Heavy air

No I can't breathe

The oxygen

Filled with lies

Coming right through your teeth

It's Heavy air

No I can't breathe

The weight of words that you share

I can't bear you making

Heavy air
