"I'm still breathing, it's just a little bit staggered."
Powerful, haunting mood music.
Story behind the song
The melody came in November, a month of change, culminations, and complete emotional tumult. Funny how it feeds songwriting!
Lyrics
Come after me
Come after me just one more time
I won't put up a fight anymore
Just look at me
Look at me just one more time
And tell me how you got lost in my eyes
Say to me
Say to me just one more
What you wanted to do to me
Might come true
Come trap me in
Trap me in just one more time
I want the scent of you derailing my mind
'cause
I'm still bleeding and
I'm still seething and
I'm still breathing, it's
Just a little bit staggered
I'm still dreaming, my
Hands still feeling and
I'm still thinking, it's
Just a little bit scattered
Come after me
Come after me now
Come pull me down onto you
Look at me
Stare me down and prove
How a woman can feel to you
Just kiss me [kiss me]
Let me close my eyes and breathe, breathe
Breathe it all in
Hold me down
Like you've finally found the truth at last
But you'll let the moment pass, and
I'm still bleeding and
I'm still seething and
I'm still breathing, it's
Just a little bit staggered
I'm still dreaming, my
Hands still feeling and
I'm still thinking, it's
Just a little bit scattered
I'm still bleeding and
I'm still seething and
I'm still breathing, it's
Just a little bit staggered
My eyes, still seeking
My soul, still leading
My heart's still beating
But yours must be a little bit blacker
I'm still bleeding [I'm still bleeding]
I'm still seething [I'm still seething]
I'm still breathing [I'm still breathing]
It's just a little bit staggered
It's just a little bit staggered
It's just a little bit staggered
