Barely Breathing by Duncan Sheik

I know (1)________ you're doing
I see it all too clear
I (2)________ taste the saline
When I kiss away your tears
You really had me going
Wishing on a star
But the black holes that surround you
Are (3)______________ by far
I believed in your confusion
You (4)________ so completely torn
It must have been that yesterday
Was the day that I was born
There's not much to examine
There's nothing left to hide
You really can't be serious
If you have to ask me why
I say good-bye
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't (5)________ the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't (6)______________ it's worth the price
It's worth the price, the price that I would pay

Everyone keeps asking
What's it all about
I used to be so certain
And I can't figure out
What is this attraction
I only feel the pain
Nothing left to reason
And only you to blame
Will it ever change
'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could stand (7)________ waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
It's worth the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway

I've come to find
I may never know
Your changing mind
Is it friend or foe
I rise above
Or sink below
With every time
You come and go

Please don't
Come and go

'Cause I am barely breathing
And I can't find the air
I don't know who I'm kidding
Imagining you care
And I could (8)__________ here waiting
A fool for another day
I don't suppose it's worth the price
It's (9)__________ the price, the price that I would pay
But I'm thinking it over anyway
I'm thinking it over anyway

I know what you're doing

I see it all too clear
