Lyrics by Troy Biffath
Please let me Breathe
Genres: Indie, Metal, Rock
The last few weeks pushed me harder than I expected. A serious family crisis, legal and insurance stress, unresolved family emotions, emotional exhaustion, and then a death in my basement forced me into a place mentally and emotionally I was struggling to survive. “Please Let Me Breathe†was created from that pressure. Not fiction. Not attention seeking. Just the emotional reality of trying to hold everything together while quietly falling apart inside. Phone lights burning in the dark Everybody falling apart Lawyers calling every day Dragging all our strength away Basement shadows still remain Every hallway feels the pain Trying hard to hold control While it crushes through my soul Every problem multiplies Every night another fire Please let me breathe I cannot carry everything Every voice inside this house Pulling hard on me again Please let me breathe Before I lose myself tonight I am so tired of surviving Every second of this life Then my father calls my phone Years of silence now undone Talking guilt and asking grace While I am barely standing straight Trying hard to kill the shame Trying hard to break these chains Trying hard to still believe I deserve the air I breathe Pressure pushing through my chest Never giving me a rest Please let me breathe I cannot carry everything Every voice inside this house Pulling hard on me again Please let me breathe Before I lose myself tonight I am so tired of surviving Every second of this life I do not need another war I do not need another scar I just need one moment free From the weight collapsing me Please let me breathe Before the darkness pulls me down Before the walls around this life Finally start crashing down Please let me breathe I am still fighting through the pain Still trying to protect the ones That keep me standing through the rain
