Hold My Breath

Lyrics

Verse 1
I wake up tired
Heart on a wire
Hands in my pockets
Trying to act like I’m fine

The room feels smaller
My thoughts get louder
I count the seconds
Just to get through the line

Pre-Chorus
Tell me I’m safe
Say it slow
Stay right here
Don’t let go

My chest goes tight
When the dark kicks in
I need a light
I can breathe in

Chorus
Hold my breath
Hold me close
I’m not okay
You already know

Hold my breath
Say my name
If I fall apart
Don’t look away

Verse 2
I leave the house
Then circle back
My phone is silent
But my mind won’t relax

Every little sound
Feels ten feet tall
I smile for you
But I’m hanging on the wall

Pre-Chorus
Tell me I’m safe
Say it slow
Stay right here
Don’t let go

My chest goes tight
When the dark kicks in
I need a light
I can breathe in

Chorus
Hold my breath
Hold me close
I’m not okay
You already know

Hold my breath
Say my name
If I fall apart
Don’t look away

Bridge
I don’t need fixing
I need your hand
A little patience
A little "I understand"

If I go quiet
Stay in the frame
Pull me back gently
Call me by my name

Chorus
Hold my breath
Hold me close
I’m not okay
You already know

Hold my breath
Say my name
If I fall apart
Don’t look away

Hold my breath
Stay tonight
If the world goes black
Be my light
