I hear her say Lift your sternum sit up tall And I feel everything at once Or I feel nothing at all I feel my bones aching So I know that I'm alive And I feel a certain sadness Right behind my eyes I could feel it breaking ever since my fourteenth birthday (Every day I'm smaller) I wish every day was longer My skin it just can't hold me I could feel it breaking ever since my fourteenth birthday (Every day I'm smaller) I wish every day was longer My skin it just can't hold me How could my heart turn away from what I want I beg for things I don't need Til you give me some I feel it in my muscles That I won't be long But maybe it's all beauty I breathe it into a song I could feel it breaking ever since my fourteenth birthday (Every day I'm smaller) I wish every day was longer My skin it just can't hold me I could feel it breaking ever since my fourteenth birthday (Every day I'm smaller) I wish every day was longer My skin it just can't hold me Maybe I should die young Go back to where I came from I will see you there my love I will see you there my love (I don't want to say it It's only getting worse isn't it) I could feel it breaking ever since my fourteenth birthday (Every day I'm smaller) I wish every day was longer My skin it just can't hold me I could feel it breaking ever since my fourteenth birthday (Every day I'm smaller) I wish every day was longer My skin it just can't hold me
