My head in my hands
Heroine on the table
Needles in the cradle
A vein in my arm
Another problem unplanned

Unwelcome
In my perfect little fucking universe
Ultimately moving in reverse
With another fix
Never to breathe alone

[Just to feel a breath steady with mine.]

If I could breathe alone
I would collapse
A panic attack ( little traps)
Would sieze me and rip me apart just
Like love has already done

Sieze me by the throat
Make me choke
Feel the burn of breathing alone
The way my lungs collapse beneath the weightof a rose
I never could understand

[Why I cannot breathe...]
Alone.
I remember once I wasn't so caught up in
Something so addicting,
Restricting
Poison, caffiene, downers all in one
Love, my addiction has become

I remember when
I could clear my head with a thought
When my feelings weren't sop wrapped up in you
But I made the perfect tool
To breathe with you
And now I cannot force my lungs to move
Without you

[I can see your smile still,
And your breath steady with mine.]

I can hear us breathe together,
But never
Never alone
I cannot imagine the viscious implications
Or panging sensations
Of loss
Or breathing alone.

I never could breathe alone.
I never could be without
My heroine, my love
You, given from above, send me below
Be my drug...

[Breathe with/through me...As I do through you.]

Love me as I love you,
and everything will suffice
To bring us through tonight.
