I can′t believe that when I breathe

There's something good inside of me

Just one good thing insideSo close to me, that memory

Of that one good thing inside of me

Just one good thing inside of me, yeah

If I ran out the backdoor, nobody would stop me

But where would I go?

′Cause I ain't ever had a real home

So what do I know?

So I could keep running, hide until they find me

But what would that do?

If they could only know what I knew

What would it prove?

I should've seen the writing on the wall

Instead, I′m left to fall

′Cause the longer I'm away

The more we stay the same

Looking back, would′ve thought I knew it all

Instead, I'm left to fall, did I throw it all away?

I can′t believe that when I breathe

There's something good inside of me

Just one good thing inside

So close to me, that memory

Of that one good thing inside of me

Just one good thing inside of me, yeah

Don′t you know, little boy, they'll lay you to waste, man?

Little do they know every song has a lifespan

Never taken one, but I'm taking my last chance

To hold all we know and let go with both hands

So don′t you know the clouds are made from concrete?

Right through the stone, can you hear my heartbeat?

Beats through my bones like the memory left me

Not for a second or a minute when I dream

I wanna go home, like the home that I keep

You can dig six or 66 feet

We could live forever, still your misery missed me

Hold this song together with a bottle of whiskey

Look into the mirror at the lines that time drew

See them painted white and the eyes that shine through

My heart beats heavy in an open chest

And I wanna say goodbye, but there′s nobody left

I can't believe that when I breathe

There′s something good inside of me

Just one good thing inside

So close to me, that memory

Of that one good thing inside of me

Just one good thing inside of me, yeah

I broke it all and I put it to test

Put your hand to mine and feel this emptiness

There's no beat in my chest ′cause there's nothing left

No, it ain′t goodbye, it's a last caress

What's another dream? You can hardly sleep

Can you believe bad things only happen to me?

God knows one day you will finally see

That scars will heal but were meant to bleed

Did you realized I would lie for you?

Please, have my last breath, I would die for you

I know I′m no good, but my heart beats true

You know I′m gonna fight, though I might be scared to lose

You took me in and I fucked it up again

An empty promise? No, I won't pretend

′Cause in the end, we need someone to solve 'em

Nobody can fix me if I′m part of the problem

I can't believe that when I breathe

There′s something good inside of me

Just one good thing inside

So close to me, that memory

Of that one good thing inside of me

Just one good thing inside of me, yeah
