Repeat 2nd Verse:  I'm breathing in your skin tonight
                   Quiet is my loudest cry
                   Wouldn't want to wake the eyes
                   That make me melt inside
                   And if it's healthier to leave you be
                   May a sickness come and set me free
                   Kill me while I still believe
                   That you were meant for me

I think that's everything.  I might have forgotten some 2nd guitar parts or
messed up a little bit but it's really hard to hear.
