R.E.M. - Try Not to Breathe Lyrics

"Here's another song
And this is called 'Try Not To Breathe'"

I will try not to breathe
I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees
These eyes are the eyes of the old, shiver and fold

I will try not to breathe
This decision is mine
I have lived a full life
And these are the eyes that I want you to remember, oh (you will never see)

I need something to fly over my grave again (you will never see)
I need something to breathe

I will try not to burden you
I can hold these inside
I will hold my breath
Until all these shivers subside
Just look in my eyes

I will try not to worry you
I have seen things that you will never see
Leave it to memory me
I shudder to breathe

I want you to remember, oh (you will never see)
I need something to fly (something to fly)
Over my grave again (you will never see)
I need something to breathe (something to breathe), oh
(I will see things you will never see)
I need something to fly
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

I will try not to burden you
I can hold these inside
I will hold my breath
Until all these shivers subside
Just look in my eyes

I will try not to worry you
I have seen things that you will never see
Leave it to memory me
Don't dare me to breathe
I want you to remember, oh (you will never see)
I need something to fly (something to fly)
Over my grave again (you will never see)
I need something to breathe (something to breathe)
(I will see things you will never see)
I need something to fly (something to fly)
Why do you shiver now? Why do you shiver?
I want you to remember

"Thank you"

"Thanks a lot"
