The numbness is setting in.
C#m7 Amaj7 E
Keep control and just breath slow,
C#m7 Amaj7 E
There's not long before I have to go.

Your fragile frame can't take this pain, I know.

If you're losing grip there's one thing you should know.

Chorus:
E Bm F#m
If you're suffocating my lungs will save you. I'd give my dying breath.

And I hope you take it if it means I don't make it. I'd rather drown

Knowing you're safe and sound.

Verse 2:
C#m7 Amaj7 E
When love was young and we were strong,

It felt like I gave you life.

Each time we try we always end up sinking.

Two can't survive on one air supply.

We can't change what fate has brought us

We can't be saved from the waters.
