Just let it be.” You ask again, I hear concern, But make it sound like something worse. I know exactly what I’m doing— Make you back off before I have to answer. [Chorus] I don’t need you closing in, I need to break space, let some air in. I’m burning air just trying to breathe. [Verse 2] I say the mean thing, see if you’ll flinch, Then hate myself when you actually do. You call me out, yeah, you always know, But I keep the lock on what I don’t show. Every time you ask me to stay, I give you one more reason not to. [Chorus] I don’t need you closing in, I need to break space, let some air in. I’m burning air just trying to breathe. [Bridge] When you stop arguing, I miss the noise. That’s the part I don’t give a voice. Staying means disappearing piece by piece. [Final Chorus] I don’t need you closing in, I need to break space, let some air in. I’m burning air just trying to breathe. The air gets cold when I get free, Still burning air just trying to breathe. [end]
