Only When I Breathe Lyrics

Everything I wanted is in pieces on the ground
Everything I thought I knew is turned upside down
Oh you give me your reasons why our love had to die
The things you said divide us were somewhere in your eyes

But I'm a fighter
I back down from no-one
I'll shine brighter
And this is how I feel
Now that we've come undone

I will survive
Break a thousand times
No I won't surrender
If it takes me forever
I won't fade away
Take the easy way
I don't need your sympathy
Cause now it only hurts when I breathe
Breathe, breathe
Now it only hurts when I breathe

We battled for control, but it slipped through our hands
Was it always meant to vanish like castles in the sand
Oh, there must be a better way than to rip our world apart
Cuz every word that cuts us leaves a lifetime of scars

But I'm a fighter
I back down from no-one
I'll shine brighter
And this is how I feel
Now that we've come undone

I will survive
Break a thousand times
No I won't surrender
If it takes me forever
I won't fade away
Take the easy way
So I don't need your sympathy
Cause now it only hurts when I breathe
Breathe, breathe
Now it only hurts when I breathe

Everything I wanted is in pieces on the ground
Everything I thought I knew is turned upside down

I will survive
Break a thousand times
No I won't surrender
If it takes me forever
I won't fade away
Take the easy way
Cause I don't need your sympathy
Now it only hurts when I breathe
Breathe, breathe
Now it only hurts when I breathe
Now it only hurts when I breathe
