Paradise Drowning Lyrics

I don't know what else to say
I'm speechless for the first time
I'll keep whispering sweet raptured lies
In habitual denial
All I can hear is the rush of blood
Coursing through my veins
I realize it all at once
Our lives will not remain the same

Gasping for breath
But if you hold it can you cheat your death?
Please tell me this isn't true
Why must this monster take you too?

What action should I take?
What else is there to do now?
I'm asking, waiting, wondering
How much time are you allowed
Who can tell what the fates decide
Will you live or will you die?
We will leave this world eventually
But I won't accept it easily

Gasping for breath
But if you hold it can you cheat your death?
Please tell me this isn't true
Why must this monster take you too?
