Lyrics:

Verse:
Would it kill you to breathe easy?
Only seventeen miles lay between you and me,
I could make it if I had to
I don't break easily,
You got my council, thick as thieves
If there's a crime we'll keep it secret,
For there's only trace amounts left in your blood,
You may be a sinner, but you may be justified,

Chorus:
Just keep your mouth shut, keep your guard up,
I swear I'll make it right.

Verse 2:
Will it kill me to breathe?
Not as easy as you think it is
Between you and me,
I could fake it if I have to
I don't break easily
I need your council, thick as thieves
I have no crime to keep a secret
It was hers, it was not mine
Well I may be a sinner,
But it wasn't me this time

(Repeat chorus)

Bridge:
Well, listen to yourself
There is a hemmorage in your mouth
It won't stop bleeding
Well, you may be the trigger
I will hold the smoking gun
You'll get away clean
I'll keep your secrets 'til the grave has swallowed me
And I will never tell a tortured soul there burning by my side
That I am a sinner
I am a savior
I am a lie

(Repeat chorus)
