Lyrics

I can't feel my legs at all.
I don't think I can feel my hands either.
Am I still breathing?
Oh, boy.
I should do something, prop myself against the wall,
But I can't seem to do anything at all.

I guess you've got me under some spell
And I really, really hope it's hard to tell
That I can't breathe,
I can't breathe.
I guess it's good I can't move
'Cause that means
I can't leave.

You're looking straight at me.
How much more of a fool could I be?
Have I been talking?
Oh, boy.
I usually don't give my secrets away
But I would like to tell you everything.

I guess you've got me under some spell.
Well, I really, really hope it's hard to tell
That I can't breathe,
I can't breathe.
I guess it's good I can't move
'Cause that means
I can't leave.

But we'll just fall in love
And it's so great for a couple years.
But it would run its course
Or end in salty, bitter tears.
And then, "It's been nice knowing you."
"Oh, so nice knowing you."

You're looking straight at me.
How much more screwed could I be?
I should do something, anything at all,
But all I can do is fall.

And I guess you've got me under some spell.
Well, I really, really hope it's hard to tell
That I can't breathe,
I can't breathe.
I guess it's good I can't move,
Yes, I'm starting to believe,
That it's good I can't move
'Cause that means
I can't leave.
