Take This To Heart
The Air I Breathe Lyrics

I Don't Want Your Sympathy For This Life That's Been Given To Me
I don't want your pity for the life that I have been given.

You Only Showed Me How To Live With The Ones That Leave
You only taught me how to cope with the people who abandon me.

And With My Pride Is All That You Left Me
You left me with nothing but my dignity and self-respect.

I Will Survive [Be]cause I Am Not You
I will make it through this because I am not like you and I refuse to be defeated.

Time After Time, Just Know That
Remember every time, know that

I Was The One Who Stood By You
I was the one who supported you and stayed by your side.

And In The End, Remember
And as things concluded, keep in mind that

You Were The One Who Fucking Left Me
You were the one who ditched and abandoned me.

So Once Again,
So once more,

I'll Be The One Here With My Heart In My Hand
I'll be the one here with my emotions and feelings exposed.

I Know I Said That I Would Forget,
I know I made an effort to forget,

But You're Forever In The Back Of My Head
But you're always on my mind and I can't shake you off.

Is This All We'll Ever Know?
Is this what our entire existence will be like?

(I Would Give Anything)
(I would do anything to change it)

[Be]cause I Can't Face This On My Own
Because I cannot deal with this by myself.

(These Broken Hands Make Broken Things)
(My damaged hands produce faulty items)

Lost and Alone
Confused and by myself

You Buried Me
You destroyed me and buried me under your issues.

With What You Couldn't Be
With the things you could not achieve yourself.

Am I A Symbol Of All The Things You Never Wanted To See?
Is my life representative of everything you never wished to witness?

You Took Life For Granted, I Hope You Choke On Every Promise You've Made
You disregarded life, and I pray that you struggle with all the pledges you've made.

All Your Words Lack Of Their Meaning,
All your phrases are devoid of significance,

Yet You Never Thought You'd Lose It All
However, you never believed that you would lose everything.

You Claimed You'd Change With The Seasons,
You bragged that you would transform as the season's transitioned,

But You Never Made It Past The Fall
But you never got beyond the autumn season.

So Mark My Grave Unknown
So inscribe my grave as unidentified.

It's Said To Live Life With A Heart Of Gold,
It is often encouraged to live life with a kind and caring soul,

But A Heart Of Stone Is All I Really Have To Show
But all that I have to present is an unyielding heart.

And If I'm Not The Only One In This World,
And if there are others like me out there,

Then Tell Me Why Do I Feel So Damn Alone?
Then explain to me why I feel so incredibly isolated?
