One Last Breath

Creed · Greatest Hits [2004]

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

I yelled back when I heard thunder

But I'm down to one last breath

And with it let me say, let me say



Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin'

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down



I'm looking down now that it's over

Reflecting on all of my mistakes

I thought I found the road to somewhere

Somewhere in His grace

I cried out, 'Heaven save me'

But I'm down to one last breath

And with it let me say, let me say



Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin'

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down



Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin'

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down



I'm so far down



Sad eyes follow me

But I still believe there's something left for me

So please come stay with me

'Cause I still believe there's something left for you and me,

For you and me

For you and me



Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin'



Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin'

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down



Hold me now

I'm six feet from the edge and I'm thinkin'

Maybe six feet

Ain't so far down



Please come now I think I'm falling

I'm holding on to what I think is safe

One Last Breath

Released on the 2004 compilation Greatest Hits, this track by Creed serves as a powerful anthem within the band's discography. The song exemplifies the group's signature blend of melodic rock and heavy distortion, characteristic of their mid-2000s era. As a staple of their live performances and radio rotation, it reinforces the emotional intensity found in albums like Human Clay and Weathered. The recording captures the band's ability to deliver soaring choruses that resonate with audiences, cementing their status as a defining act of the nu-metal and alternative rock movements of the early 2000s.
