Barely Living

Reading the signs I don’t know what is mine From the crumbs that you lay In front of me Holding me down I don’t know more than doubt In my mind, as I dream these Broken dreams Here on the floor I can see you so raw With your hopes just Deflating at your feet Cos I hope you believe in me You don’t know how much I care But I can’t waste my life away For a crumb that you might spare I’ll give you my hand You can take all you can With the life blowing slowly Out of me Cos I know you believe in me You just find it hard to say But I won’t hold my breath for you Just to throw a bone my way Cos I believe in romance I believe in trust In truth In dust In me, in us Cos I know you believe in me So I’ll try and keep my head And I see all we ought to be Barely living, almost dead Barely living, almost dead Barely living, almost dead
