im barely alive today it almost hurts to breathe my words wont come out straight whats the matter with me if i can just find a way without ever having to speak to get my voice to carry all around the world just for you every word i sing but melodies melodies dont last too long nothing lasts forever im barely alive today and im unable to begin in my dream i traveled all around the world you were there everywhere i went i want to find a way without ever having to breathe to send my voice across a field of angry herds just for you every word i sing but melodies melodies dont last too long nothing lasts forever
