Still Breathing

Can you see
Deep inside of me
How far is gone?

Can you go
Through the cold in my eyes
See if I’m still warm?

Can you see
Deep inside my core
How damaged have I’ve become?

Can you please
Remove my skin and see
If I still feel?

So you can scratch and reach out
And reach out underneath
See for yourself I can’t make it
I can’t catch my breath

Can you find
The monster inside and see how big it’s grown?

Can you explain
How am I supposed to heal
If I’m still bleeding?

Can you see
Deep inside my core
How poisonous I’ve become?

Can you explain
How am I still breathing?

So you can scratch and reach out
And reach out underneath
See for yourself I can’t make it
I can’t catch my breath
It doesn’t matter as hard as I try
As I try I’m not gonna make it
I die every night, every night

Can you see
The beast inside
Devouring every little piece?

Can you explain
How am I supposed to stitch me
If I can’t stop bleeding?

Can you feel
All the sorrow I carry everyday right on my back

Can you explain
How am I still breathing?
