I leave the gas on, walk the alleys in the dark 
sleep with candles burning, I leave the door unlocked 
I'm weaving a rope and, running all the red lights 
did I get your attention cause I'm sending all the signs (that) 
the clock is ticking, and I'll be giving my two weeks 
your favorite shade of black, you best prepare a speech 
say something funny, say something sweet 
but don't say that you loved me 

Cause I'm still breathing 
And we've been dead for a while 
this sickness has no cure 
we're going down for sure 
already lost a grip 
best abandoned ship 

Maybe I was too pale, mabye I was to fat 
maybe you had better, better luck in the sack 
no formal education and I swore way to much 
but I swear you didn't fucking care cause we were in love 
so as I write this letter and shead my last tear 
its all for the better than we had this year 
lets close this chapter, say one last prayer 
but don't say that you loved me 

Cause I'm still breathing 
And we've been dead for a while 
this sickness has no cure 
we're going down for sure 
we've been diagnosed, so lets give up the ghost 
Cause I'm still breathing 
And we've been dead for a while 
this sickness has no cure 
we're going down for sure 
already lost a grip 
best abandond ship 

...oh I'm still breathing... 
...I'm still breathing...
