Breathing

Bad dreams on the way
If he was here I'd be safe
Across the ocean as far as it can go
Can't look at the same stars - it's morning out his window

Quiet and still I hide under the feathers
Door locked, phone propped against my head
Passing cars, numbing alarms
Why am I here? Why is he gone?

Sleeping is sadness
Sadness is breathing
But I'm breathing one breath closer to you
I just keep breathing

Months are just weeks
Weeks are just days full of minutes
Seconds of breaths I keep breathing
Eyelids close, falling in circles
Of memories I breathe on your pillow

Sleeping is sadness
Sadness is breathing
But I'm breathing one breath closer to you
I just keep breathing
Goodnight
