Try not to breathe-R.E.M.

by Incognito   Dec 10, 2004


The first lie was about sleeping
I said I was an insomniac
And she believed me
Then I said I was evil
Without a doubt my behavior
Seemed so to her, I did hurt her
Then I said I was in love
I was just jealous
Because I knew she really was
I pushed her far away
Said I was sick of her
Though I just wanted to be lonely
I begged her not to tell
That is I said I would stop for good
But I didn’t and I couldn’t stop at all
I told her I would ask for help
If I felt this way again
But I never did I never had the guts
In the end I wouldn’t say goodbye face to face
But left her an untidy note
Saying what song to play at my funeral
