0:14I will try not to breathe
0:16I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees
0:20These eyes are the eyes of the old, shivering and bold
0:30I will try not to breathe
0:32This decision is mine. I have lived a full life
0:36And these are the eyes that I want you to remember, oh
0:51I need something to fly over my grave again
0:59I need something to breathe
1:06I will try not to burden you
1:09I can hold these inside. I will hold my breath
1:13Until all these shivers subside,
1:17Just look in my eyes
1:22I will try not to worry you
1:25I have seen things that you will never see
1:29Leave it to memory me. I shudder to breathe
1:39I want you to remember, oh (you will never see)
1:51I need something to fly (something to fly)
1:55Over my grave again (you will never see)
1:59I need something to breathe (something to breathe)
2:03Baby, don't shiver now
2:05Why do you shiver now? (I will see things you will never see)
2:08I need something to fly (something to fly)
2:12Over my grave again. (I will see things you will never see)
2:15I need something to breathe, oh, oh, oh, oh
2:24Oh, oh, oh, oh
2:27Oh, oh, oh, oh
2:31Oh, oh, oh, oh
2:35Oh, oh, oh
2:39I will try not to worry you
2:41I have seen things that you will never see
2:45Leave it to memory me. Don't dare me to breathe
2:56I want you to remember, oh (you will never see)
3:08I need something to fly (something to fly)
3:12Over my grave again (you will never see)
3:16I need something to breathe (something to breathe)
3:20Baby, don't shiver now
3:22Why do you shiver? (I will see things you will never see)
