Sitting on a corner street   Children playing at my feet   See the smiles on ice cream faces   Feel myself begin to sink   As the wind blows through my skin   Leaves me open to temptation      'Cause nothing ever lasts forever   We're like flowers in this vase together      You and me, it's pulling me down   Tearing me down, piece by piece   And you can't see that it's like a disease   Killing me now, it's so hard to breathe      Sucking back a cigarette   Thinking about new regrets   Trying to be someone you'd like to be   Passing faces on the road   Where the hell can we still go?   Leaves us open to temptation      'Cause nothing ever lasts forever   We're like flowers in this vase together      You and me, it's pulling me down   Tearing me down, piece by piece   And you can't see that it's like a disease   Killing me now, it's so hard to breathe, it's so hard to breathe      But it's worth fighting for, it's still worth fighting for   It's worth fighting for   'Cause nothing ever lasts forever   We're like flowers in this vase together, here      You and me, it's pulling me down   Tearing me down, piece by piece   And you can't see that it's like a disease   It's killing me now, it's so hard to breathe      You and me, it's pulling me down   Tearing me down, piece by piece   And you can't see that it's like a disease   It's killing me now, it's so hard to breathe
