One Last Breath
Creed · 2001
🎤 Sing along
Sing with the chorus
- Hold me now
- I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinking
- Maybe six feet ain't so far down
Echo the hook
- Please come now, I think I'm falling
- I'm holding on to all I think is safe
- It seems I found the road to nowhere
- And I'm trying to escape
