Comin' Up For Air

Comin’ Up For Air


(Begin with chorus intro)

I’m comin’ up for air, I gotta breath.
I can’t give up, I’ll make you see.
The things you did were drowning me.
But you can’t hold me down,, I’ll make my own repair
I’m comin’ up for air.


Thought that I had loved you~
Really thought I knew you,
now I’m looking through you....into no-where.

Thought you could break through me~
Thought you’d always own me,
Tried your best to hold me,
but I’m comin’ up for air.


(CHORUS)

I’m comin’ up for air, I gotta breath.
I can’t give up, I’ll make you see.
The things you did were drowning me.
But you can’t hold me down, I’ll make my own repair
I’m comin’ up for air.


Can’t keep me down no longer~
You had your time and it just made me stronger.
So look me in the eye, cause I will stare you down.

You took all I was forced to give
but now I’ve got my life to live.
And I’m gonna carry on without your shadow here to suck the life from me.


(Repeat chorus)

Baby, that was such a long, long time ago to me.
You cannot keep our thumb upon me now.
I’m finally looking through my eyes and now I see.
My life has been repaired,
cause I came up for air.....for .....me.

(Chorus, and fade)
