Release (Lungs Tighten)

there's a pressure in my chest
and it's tryin to get the best
of me and all i do
my heart's a hummingbird
i just need a gentle word
to calm me down
so call me on the phone
i don't want to be alone
not right now
i'm tired of being scared
and feelin' unprepared
i just don't know where to go from here

it's harder than it looks
not like the stories in books
with happy endings
always second guess myself
'til there's no more guesses left
i turn in circles
at times these words they aren't enough
they'll never be someone to touch
or hold me
gettin bye on day to day
what more can i say?
i swear sometimes it takes the best of me
