Remember How Much You Like To Breathe

You say that you are hopeless, 
That you want life less than you want death ...
But if you jumped into a pool right now
I know you'd hold your breath.
So, no. You are not hopeless.
It's just that hope is hard to find.
If you could see what you're capable of, 
I know you'd change your mind.
You may be at rock bottom
But its the perfect place to start,
Where the only thing that you can hear
Is the beating of your heart.
You have to almost lose it
To remember what you've had.
There's been a share of good times Mixed in between the bad.
So don't wait for the ending,
Until your last breath starts to leave
Before you finally remember
How much you like to breathe.
