  • Stop staring, you're the reason I feel so unhappy all the time.
    Look, I've given you everything I know how.
    You're standing on the top of my shoe,
    Keeping me from gaining ground, yeah.
    Look, I'm sorry if you feel like I let you down.

    Can you tell me what have I done so wrong..to you?
    T-T-T-Tell me, what am I supposed to do?

    I should be loved by you,
    That I know is true.
    I can't breathe when you're around, no.

    I should be held at night,
    That I know is right.
    I can't breathe when you're around.

    You're too scared,
    Scared of all of it,
    I get that feeling I'm talking to the wall.
    Can you hear me at all?
    Look, my world was shaking, my mind was quaking, my heart kept breaking,
    I threw it against the wall.
    Can anyone feel me at all?

    Can you tell me what have I done so wrong, to you?
    T-T-T-Tell me, what am I supposed to do?
    I got a feeling, you're falling out of love, with me.
    T-T-T-Tell me, who am I supposed to be?

    I should be loved by you
    That I know is true.
    I can't breathe when you're around, no.

    I should be held at night,
    That I know is right.
    I can't breathe when you're around.
    Yeah, I can't breathe when you're around.
    Look, I can't breathe.

    I should be loved by you,
    That I know is true!
    I can't breathe when you're around!
    I should be held, I should be held!
    I can't breathe when you're around!
    No, I can't breathe when you're around!
    No, I can't breathe Writer/s: JUSTIN FURSTENFELD
