[Intro] [Clean guitar arpeggio with a slight wah-wah effect, building into a solid, groovy riff] [Verse 1] Four walls closing in around me Your voice bounces off the ceiling and cuts right through me I'm drowning in the silence you create Every word you speak just steals the air I'm breathing This room feels half the size it was When we started this dance of love [Pre-Chorus] I need room to move I'm suffocating slowly, can't you see? [Chorus] Give me space to breathe I'm not running, I'm not leaving Just give me space to breathe This pressure building, my heart is heaving (Yeah) I just need room to find myself again Before these walls close in [Verse 2] Your perfume lingers like a heavy cloud Clings to my skin, pulls me under I used to crave the comfort of your touch Now I'm gasping for the thunder That used to rumble deep inside my chest Before you went and took a hammer to my chest [Pre-Chorus] I need room to move This love is making me feel claustrophobic [Chorus] Give me space to breathe I'm not running, I'm not leaving Just give me space to breathe This pressure building, my heart is heaving (I said) I just need room to find myself again Before these walls close in [Bridge] [Softer dynamics with piano and Mellotron] (Whoa-oh) Maybe distance lets the heart grow stronger Or maybe I just can't take it any longer (Yeah) I need to see who I am without you near Remind myself I'm still standing here [Guitar Solo] [Melodic, JJ Marsh-style guitar solo with a smooth, singing tone] [Chorus] Give me space to breathe I'm not running, I'm not leaving (I'm not leaving) Just give me space to breathe This pressure building, my heart is heaving (Oh, I need it) I just need room to find myself again Before these walls close in [Outro] (Walls closing... closing in...) Just a little room (Just a little air) I'm still here (I'm still standing) Just let me breathe (Yeah... space...) [End]
