I Don't Know How I Survive Lyrics — Death Cab For Cutie

Listen to the ringing in your ears
The scrambled voices of your fears
Whispering, whispering
Listen to the sound of your heartbeat
Growing louder, gaining speed
You're breathin' out, breathin' in

In these nights, I don't know how I survive

Pacing across the room while she's asleep
Tears raining down her cheeks
Trying to hold, trying to hold on
Praying, even though you don't believe
Just in case they are received
By anyone, anyone

These nights, I don't know how I survive
(These nights, I don't know how I survive)
These nights, I don't know how I survive
(These nights, I don't know how I survive)
These nights, I don't know how I survive
(These nights, I don't know how I survive)
These nights, I don't know how I survive
(These nights, I don't know how I survive)

No, I don't know how I survive
(I don't know how I survive)
No, I don't know how I survive
(I don't know how I survive)

Listen to the ringing in your ears
The scrambled voices of your fears
Whispering, whispering
