Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
And I wanna put the
So like, "Remember where you started
Na-na-na-na
And don't you forget to breathe"
I'm not afraid to fly
I'm not afraid to try
But sometimes I can't decide which way to turn
No, I'm not afraid to go
Admit I still need to grow
Sometimes I think I know everything, but I don't
I, I wake up and get to work
Let's just be honest, Jesus, I'm a mess
I'm a mess
Won one, lost two
Lost us, found you-hoo-hoo-ooh
Held our breath for far too long
Let me finish, let me finish talkin'
Let me get this off my chest
I'm a vault, keep it closed
Hide the pain, so nobody knows
When the darkness closes in on you
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid
Don't be afraid
Come lay down and pray with me
I save each voice note just to hear their voice
You see the worst in me, you see my ugly
But you think I'm beautiful
I'm afraid that this anxiety is killing me
Let my heart be an open book before you
Finally got a chance to catch my breath, think it over
Remember where you're going
Just enjoy the moment
And don't you forget to breathe
Don't you forget
Don't you forget to breathe
Don't you forget to breathe
Breathe
Breathe, breathe
