Respirar

I see how they fall from my skin
Flaky little pieces
Due to the absence of your moisture
My dehydrated body

The broken skin falls
Revealing
The other one with more shine
Than the one falling
Because something is feeding it

My skin silently screams
Take me out of here
My skin silently screams
Oxygen to breathe

Breathing in this lack of you
Breathing in this absence of me
Breathing to feel better
Breathing to ease the pain
Breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe

Today I would need the invasion
Of my personal space
But no, today it won't happen
There won't be a hug
There won't be your hug
Today it won't happen

The pain at times
Becomes almost unbearable
But what doesn't kill you
Makes you relentless
Each in their universe
Feels their pain as something immense

Love gives us life
And its absence
Kills us a little every day

My skin silently screams
Take me out of here
My skin silently screams
Oxygen to breathe

Breathing in this lack of you
Breathing in this absence of me
Breathing to feel better
Breathing to ease the pain
Breathing to feel that I'm alive
And I can breathe without you

Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
Breathe, breathe, breathe, breathe
