Languishing (The Interlude)

by Dixie chicks

If you could only see
That i was not put here for you
To judge me and dispute my in most truth
And after all these years of enmity, envy and tears
It’s a shame you don’t know me at all
I was wondering
Would you cry for me?
If i told you that i couldn’t breathe
If i was drowning, suffocating
If i told you that i couldn’t breathe
Those ageless buried recollections
We transform them and select them
You have yours, i have mine
That’s fine
Why are we too torn to heal?
Our stitches never disappeared
I have mine, you have yours
I’m sure
I was wondering
Would you reach for me?
If you saw that i was languishing
I was wondering
Would you cry for me?
If i told you that i couldn’t breathe
If i was drowning, suffocating
If i told you that i couldn’t breathe
