I haven\u2019t been able to breathe for years, decades, centuries.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe because my \u00a0small world abhors me<\/p>\n
I have lived within a part of it<\/p>\n
A tiny drop in the ocean<\/p>\n
And I have witnessed its misery<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe when children are tortured and killed<\/p>\n
No need for pictures.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe when animals are tortured and killed.<\/p>\n
No need for pictures.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe when hate is all over the place.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause when I try to explain<\/p>\n
You suffocate me.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause you do not let me.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause I do not know where to go<\/p>\n
Who to defend?<\/p>\n
How to support myself?<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause I want to take the whole world to a safe place<\/p>\n
And then I wonder:<\/p>\n
Who is suffocating me, you, the innocent?<\/p>\n
It is us I hate<\/p>\n
We can\u2019t breathe cause we hate.<\/p>\n
It is in our nature,<\/p>\n
Who tortures, who kills?<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe.<\/p>\n
What do you see in the mirror?<\/p>\n
Are you all without sin?<\/p>\n
No, I can\u2019t breathe.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Who is the evil?<\/p>\n
What to attack?<\/p>\n
Who is the invisible enemy?<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe<\/p>\n
Gasping is all<\/p>\n
They let me do.<\/p>\n
Just to serve their purposes.<\/p>\n
Who are you without a purpose?<\/p>\n
Can you breathe?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause I am afraid.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause I have accepted our fate.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause people suffocate me.<\/p>\n
I can\u2019t breathe cause it will always be this way.<\/p>\n
Cause it has always been this way.<\/p>\n
I won\u2019t breath until it is changed.<\/p>\n
