I first heard this song a couple of days ago and I haven’t been able to get it out of my heart. Some deep parts of me resonate with the feelings Bea Miller gives voice to… I’m guessing that maybe true for many of us from time to time. I’m not entirely sure why, but some how in hearing others give expression to their experience helps me feel less alone in my own.
I’m so grateful to have friends and family with whom I can talk and connect, yet I know that’s not true for everyone. If you feel like you can’t breathe, please reach out to someone, you matter… and you are not alone.
I Can’t Breathe
by Bea Miller
Somebody get me a hammer Wanna break all the clocks and the mirrors And go back to a time that was different A time when I Didn't feel like there was something missing Now my body and mind are so distant Don't know how to escape from this prison How can I free my mind? 'Cause I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe How can I live in the moment When my thoughts never feel like my own and Don't know how to admit that I'm broken How can I be alright? 'Cause I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe I can't breathe
Peace, dwight
“I Can’t Breathe”
