Black Lungs

[Verse 1]

While there's a darkness in my head

Growing stronger and it sways my weary self

And there's an evil creeping in

It eats my skin and takes my form, it's very wrong

[Chorus]

Please just let me breathe like I used to do

Please just let me see like I did

Please just let me breathe like when my lungs weren't black

Please just let me see like before I saw death

[Verse 2]

I can't pretend to see you're the same

When I was ten and they would preach your holy name

'Cause you were oh so magical

But I've grown old and my mind's so practical

[Chorus]

Please just let me breathe like I used to do

Please just let me see like I did

Please just let me breathe like when my lungs weren't black

Please just let me see like before I saw death

[Bridge]

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

Whoa-oh-oh-oh

'Cause I've done so many things that should

Make you hate me and forget my name, oh god

I've done so many things that should

Make you hate me and forget my name

[Outro]

So, why don't you just turn your back?

Why don't you just turn your back?

Why don't you just turn your back?

'Cause you know that I already have

Why don't you just turn your back?

Why don't you just turn your back?

Why don't you just turn your back?

'Cause you know that I already have
