[Intro]

Kon


[Hook: iris day]

I can't breathe what have you done?

I can't breathe, I can't breathe

I can't breathe what have you done?

I can't breathe, I can't breathe


[Verse 1: iris day]

I can never reach through the sunlight

It burns right through my eyes

My wings melt as I fly

And I can't get any closer

Blackness seems to seep right through my life

I thought this was my time

To break past the walls that I built so long ago

Oh my god is it ending like this?

No I can't believe that you're staring like this

Oh Icarus how could you fly so high

Its like u thought that you would be free this time


[Verse 2: leastfavorite!]

I'm paper cut from tryna grab the pages before they turn

I saw the future in a nightmare we were crashing and burnt

I'm falling gently into voids that I can’t seem to climb out

And something's tasting just like metal on, the roof of my mouth


[Hook: iris day]

I can't breathe what have you done?

I can't breathe, I can't breathe

I can't breathe what have you done?

I can't breathe, I can't breathe


[Verse 3: phixel]

Going gentle into a good night

You will never feel this again

If not for me then go for a good fight

You won't know what's real and pretend

Sorry if I try way too hard

I just want this to happen to go off without a hitch

Not to veer off into a ditch, you feel me?


[Outro: iris day]

Melting constantly put me in the dirt

Daedalus save me split open the earth

My heart in the mud can you tell me what its worth?

Oh father curse the sun and the worms in the dirt

Oh my son its not you're fault

You could never predict that the world would be so cruel

I could never protect you
