When I Breathe

Avion

You asked me for my heart

But you didn't have your own

I'm back to where I start

An empty page alone



And I don't want to be the first to call

To show that I still care

Cause every time we speak I fall apart

You know you've got me there



But time will make it all feel better

Like salve upon a wound you soon won't see

Time will erase the scars I've weathered

But as for now it only hurts when I breathe



The pictures once on top

Are deeper in the drawer

Like promises we swapped

Were swept up off the floor



And I don't want to be the one you love

Cause no one else is there

I was never good as runner-up

In races that aren't fair



But time will make it all feel better

Like salve upon a wound you soon won't see

Time will erase the scars I've weathered

But as for now it only hurts



Tarnished as this coin I found

Now how am I going to make it through

In the economy of pain

A flowing currency of grace anew
