[Verse 1]
I will try not to breathe, I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees
These eyes are the eyes of the old, shivering and fold
I will try not to breathe, this decision is mine, I have lived a full life
And these are the eyes that I want you to remember

[Refrain]
Oh
I need something to fly over my grave again
I need something to breathe

[Verse 2]
I will try not to burden you, I can hold these inside
I will hold my breath until all these shivers subside, just look in my eyes
I will try not to worry you, I have seen things that you will never see
Leave it to memory me, I shudder to breathe

[Chorus]
I want you to remember, oh (You'll never see)
I need something to fly (Something to fly) over my grave again (You'll never see)
I need something to breathe (Something to breathe)
Baby, don't shiver now, why do you shiver now? (I have seen things you will never see)
I need something to fly (Something to fly) over my grave again (I have seen things you will never see)
I need something to breathe (Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh)

[Bridge]
I will try not to worry you, I have seen things that you will never see
Leave it to memory me, don't dare me to breathe
[Chorus]
I want you to remember, oh (You'll never see)
I need something to fly (Something to fly) over my grave again (You'll never see)
I need something to breathe (Something to breathe)
Baby, don't shiver now, why do you shiver? (I have seen things you will never see)
I need something to breathe (Something to breathe) (I have seen things you will never see)
I want you to remember
