I'm pretty sure this was one of the last songs Kurt Cobain heard before he took his own life because the police found the CD "Automatic for the people" by REM in the CD player in the master bedroom when he was found dead. It scares me how much this song kind of goes with how his life was in a way...it may just be me...but i don't know...I strongly advise you to hear the song and watch the video because together...it makes more sence. I have the lyrics below so you have a better understanding of what Michael Stipe is singing...hopefully you see the same thing I do! ALL COPYRIGHTS GO TO THEIR RIGHTFUL OWNERS!!!!! I DO NOT OWN OR CLAIM ANY OF THE THINGS IN THE VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Song: Try not to Breathe- REM Lyrics: I will try not to breathe I can hold my head still with my hands at my knees These eyes are the eyes of the old, shivering and bold I will try not to breathe This decision is mine. I have lived a full life And these are the eyes that I want you to remember, oh I need something to fly over my grave again I need something to breathe I will try not to burden you I can hold these inside. I will hold my breath Until all these shivers subside, Just look in my eyes I will try not to worry you I have seen things that you will never see Leave it to memory me. I shudder to breathe I want you to remember, oh (you will never see) I need something to fly (something to fly) Over my grave again (you will never see) I need something to breathe (something to breathe) Baby, don't shiver now Why do you shiver now? (I will see things you will never see) I need something to fly (something to fly) Over my grave again. (I will see things you will never see) I need something to breathe, oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh, oh Oh, oh, oh I will try not to worry you I have seen things that you will never see Leave it to memory me. Don't dare me to breathe I want you to remember, oh (you will never see) I need something to fly (something to fly) Over my grave again (you will never see) I need something to breathe (something to breathe) Baby, don't shiver now Why do you shiver? (I will see things you will never see) I need something to breathe (something to breathe - I have seen things you will never see) I want you to remember
