Hanging
[Verse]
Hanging on your every word
And any time you talk, the rope is burning
Maybe I'm just brave when I’m asleep
I tell you how you kill me in my dreams

I wouldn't like to hold my breath
To be pushed underwater when I'm coming up for air
Somebody good shouldn’t feel so bad
Well, I must've done something to deserve to feel this sad

[Chorus]
And my heart won't grow
With your fingers down my throat
It's a hard brown stone
Like an embryo

[Post-Chorus]
It will never be a part of me worth finding

[Verse]
I'm going home to intubate
'Cause every time we talk I suffocate
Remember when you said I'm a disease
And how you'd like to kill me in your dreams
I couldn’t help but hold my breath for a change in direction
Now I’m running out of air
Somebody good shouldn't be so cruel
And I know you don’t mean it, but I'm breaking like a wound

[Chorus]
And my heart won't grow
With your fingers down my throat
It's a hard brown stone
Like an embryo

[Post-Chorus]
It will never be a part of me worth finding

[Outro]
Yeah, you were a part of me
I’m so relieved it hurts
Yeah, you were a part of me
I'm so relieved it hurts
Yeah, you were a part of me
I'm so relieved it hurts
