Don't Touch Me Now

This fucking song... Someone very close to me tried to not give me advice. And I was reminded of lyrics. From this song. I'm always reminded of the lyrics in this song. It shows up all the time in my writing. You, oh dear stranger, thankfully you would not know this. You can take my word though, I love each line of this song. It is wonderful.



I Can Barely Breathe

When the dark flood came,
We wrapped ourselves inside a dirty blanket
Citing different opinions
On whether we should move.

When the houses came,
They ate up everyone like they were fishes
Saying, "Come on, come on,
It's the end of the world."

And then I saw your face,
You're turning skin into a dirty secret.
I watched the beauties, watched the fire,
And the fire burn the beauty in their eyes.

When I took the blame,
We laid in ruins trying to quote your phrase,
We're yelling, "Someone's got the answers,
But I'd rather think there's nothing to be found."

If you knew I was dying would it change you?
If you knew I was dying would it change?
If you knew I was dying would it change you?
If you knew I was dying would it change anything?

So when you see me falling backwards down the wall that says I'm still alive,
Don't be cautious when I'm cautiously approaching on the other side.
Everybody has their reasons, that's the reason we're all gonna die,
Because if seeing is believing, then believe that we have lost our eyes.

'Cause when I fly solo, I fly so high.
When I fly solo, I fly so high.
'Cause when I fly solo, I fly so high.
'Cause when I fly solo, I fly so high, I fly so high.
Don't touch me now.

We all deserve, we all deserve something.
