This Little Life

Hold me, like we’re falling so deep
Like the floors are opening
Like the pool is empty

Hold me, like we're close to the core
Like the earth is burning hot
Like we're merged deep in my thoughts

Hold me, make it hard for me to breathe
Say you’ll never let me go
For I don't know how to live

It's impossible here, they all smothered me
This life is so little from up here
Feed hyenas with my blood

It's too late to mend this lie
This little life is meant to break
I’ll never know why you loved me
And that’s what haunts me the most

You see me as the rivers and plains
You see me as the storms and the rain
I won't learn to breathe again

You see me as the storms and the seas
You see me as the birds in the trees
You’ll see me in everything
