In the beginning it was worth this   Do the worst, feel complete   Passing standards others meet   (What we do best)   Now perfect endings make you anxious   Heavy head, a colder sweat   Leaving nothing here, nothing to regret      Why am I still suffocating   Constantly devastated just to stay alive   Why am I still suffocating   Constantly devastated just to stay alive      I miss the old days that we murdered   They're so far gone, out of reach   Watch 'em fade with summer's heat   (Well it goes like this)   Without a break from this distraction   I need a change, a different scene   A new approach to coming clean      Why am I still suffocating   Constantly devastated just to stay alive   Why am I still suffocating   Constantly devastated just to stay alive      Still searching for a back door out of here    Reassured that old friends will reappear    Why am I still suffocating   Just hold your breathe deep and I'll keep waiting   (x2)      Why am I still suffocating   Constantly devastated just to stay alive   Why am I still suffocating   Constantly devastated just to stay alive
