I awoke Only to find my lungs empty And through the night So it seems I'm not breathing And now my dreams are nothing like they were meant to be And I'm breaking down, I think I'm breaking down
And I'm afraid To sleep because of what haunts me Such as living with the uncertainty That I'll never find the words to say Which would completely explain Just how I'm breaking down
[Chorus] Someone come and, someone come and save my life Maybe I'll sleep when I am dead But now it's like the night is taking sides With all the worries that occupy the back of my mind Could it be this misery will suffice?
[Gordon Downie] I've become A simple souvenir of someone's kill And like the sea I'm constantly changing from calm to ill Madness fills my heart and soul as if the great divide could swallow me whole oh, how I'm breaking down
[Chorus] oooohhh my life
Someone come and, someone come and save my life (save my life) Someone come and, someone come and save my life (save my life) Someone come and, someone come and save my life Could it be this misery will suffice?
