A Million Wasted Words

I can't move
This claustrophobic air, in, out
My mouth moves, jagged breath
I mourn the loss of movement, but I should rest
No rest in sleep

If I lead the way, will you follow me?
'Cause I need to say I won't leave you here again
You know I tried to reach you
And I know I failed you
Like you failed me

So why the wait?
We were desperate to stay the same, those days
A million wasted words, so pointless
Each morning stole another night from you

If I lead the way, will you follow me?
'Cause I need to say I won't leave you here again
You know I tried to reach you
And I know I failed you
Like you failed me
You've waited all this time

I feel the weight pressing down on me
Crushed under earth
Don't leave me here
