Do you spend your days
Counting the hours you're awake?
And when night covers the sky
You find yourself doing the same
As a burden, you've been buried
In spite of all your prayers
There's a light turned off inside your heart
Can you remember what it's like to care?
Knees are weak, hands are shaking, I can't breathe
So give me the drug, keep me alive
Give me what's left of my life don't let me go
Pull this plug, let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free, don't let me go
The trail of crumbs you left
Somehow got lost along the way
If you never meant to leave
Then you only had to stay
But the memories that haunt us
Are cherished just the same
As the ones that bring us closer to the sky
No matter how grave, yet I fall
Through these clouds, which is screaming
Give me the drug, keep me alive
Give me what's left of my life but let me go
Pull this plug, let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free, don't let me go
This grip loosens but it never breaks
(Never breaks)
We carry nothing but a name you will forsake
Your words are always there to break my fall
(Break my fall)
And then I find the comfort to see through it all
Guide me through un-chartered waters
Before we lose our way again
Will you be my compass
Until forever, until forever ends?
Knees are weak, hands are shaking, I can't breathe
So give me the drug, keep me alive
Give me what's left of my life, don't let me go
Pull this plug, let me breathe
On my own I'm finally free, don't let me go
Don't let me go, don't let me go

I think this song is about the writer being in love with a person who hurts them. The writer knows that it would be good if this person left but the writer is afraid of being without that person and the freedom that it brings.

this song is sayin ppl should be free and do wot they want to do and want they want to be its their lives so they should do what they want to

I believe that this song is speaking about how we shouldn't try to keep those permanently in a coma alive and how we should set them free so they can die already and be at peace; I believe this song was written around the time when Terri Schiavo was getting all that news coverage, which could have possibly been an influence for this song.
