No Air

No Air by Jordin Sparks feat. Chris Brown is featured in Throwdown, the seventh episode of Season One. It is sung by Will's Group, with solos from Finn and Rachel.

Sue becomes co-director of the New Directions and creates her own sub-group, Sue's Kids, created to beat the original New Directions at Sectionals. Quinn is visibly angry that Finn and Rachel are taking the lead solos because she sees they're growing extremely close as they practice. The song was to be performed later on in the episode, however Sue interrupted the song, which lead to her and Will having a fight. This song was originally planned for Sectionals, until Sue resigns as co-director of the New Directions.

Will's Group:
Oh...
Oh...
Oh...

Rachel:
If I should die before I wake,
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like
Living in a world with no air
Oh

Finn:
I'm here alone, don't wanna leave
My heart won't move; it's incomplete
Wish there was a way
That I can make you understand

Rachel:
But how
Do you expect me
To live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

Will's Group:
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air
No air, air (Rachel: No)
No air, air (Finn: No)
No air, air (Rachel: No)
No air, air

Finn:
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real

Rachel:
But, somehow, I'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but I survived
I don't know how, but I don't even care

Finn and Rachel:
So how (Rachel: How)
Do you expect me (Rachel: Me)
To live alone with just me (Rachel: Oh)
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

Will's Group:
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (Rachel: Uh) (Finn: Oh)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air (Rachel: Uh) (Finn: Oh)
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there (Rachel: No air, no air) (Finn: No air)
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep (Rachel: So deep)
Tell me how you gonna be without me (Finn: Without me, yeah!)
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe (Rachel: Breathe, no) (Finn: No air...)
It's no air, no air
No air, air (Rachel: No)
No air, air (Rachel: No)
No air, air (Rachel: No)
No air, air (Finn: No more)

No, no, no, no air (Rachel: No)
No, no, no, no air
No, no, no, no air (Finn: Baby) (Rachel: No)
No air, no air

Finn:
No

Rachel:
Yeah yeah yeah, no

Will's Group:
No!
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (Rachel: Breathe with no air yeah) (Finn: No air)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air (Rachel: Woah woah) (Finn: No air)
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there (Rachel: Whenever you ain't there) (Finn: No breathing)
It's no air, no air (Rachel: No breathing no)
Got me out here in the water so deep (Rachel: So deep) (Finn: So deep)
Tell me how you gonna be without me (Rachel: Without me) (Finn: Can't breathe without you baby)
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe (Rachel: Breathe - no air)
It's no air, no air

No air, air (Rachel: Baby, no air)
No air, air (Finn: No)
No air, air (Finn: Hard for me to breathe)
No air, air (Rachel: Oh)

Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air (Rachel: No air)
Can't live, can't breathe with no air (Rachel: No no)
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there (Rachel: Not there )
It's no air, no air

Rachel:
You got me out here in the water so deep

Finn:
Tell me how you gonna be without me

Rachel:
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe

Finn and Rachel:
It's no air, no air

Will's Group:
No air, air (Rachel: No)
No air, air (Finn: Oh, oh) (Rachel: Oh, oh)
No air, air (Rachel: No air)

Finn and Rachel:
