Breathe
Lyrics
Breathe like you'll never breathe again
Like you really know its over
like you finally found your friends
And laugh like you're coughin out your heart
let the lightning split your shoulders
while you're gropin through the dark
Then drink like your fallin off the church
like you're pissin off the maggots
like your fuckin every girl
Then cry cause it feels so god damned good
but you won't talk to you neighbors
Can you breathe really breathe?
Fill your lungs again
One more time there's no time
To hold it in
Can you breathe really breathe?
Step back and breathe
You're still here. What are you waiting for?
Think let the stillness take your soul
Be the lake below the glacier
Be as clear with self control then
Heave let the effort stretch you higher
May you dare to live your epic
And may it forge you in its fire then
Dream, fall in love with the unknown
But get your boots right on the gravel
and struggle cheerfully alone then
Breathe take your shadow off of the wall... take your shadow off the wall
Can you breathe really breathe?
Fill your lungs again
One more time there's no time
To hold it in
Can you breathe really breathe?
Step back and breathe
You're still here. So why are you waiting? Oh yeah you've got another
chance...
So breathe, in the unknown, and get your boots right on the gravel,
cheerfully alone
then cry cause it feels so god damned good
when the salt has lost its savor
Chorus
Breathe like you'll never breathe again
Like you really know its over
like you finally found your friends
And laugh like you're coughin out your heart
let the lightning split your shoulders
while you're gropin through the dark
Then drink like your fallin off the church
like you're pissin off the maggots
like your fuckin every girl
Then cry cause it feels so god damned good
but you won't talk to you neighbors
Can you breathe really breathe?
Fill your lungs again
One more time there's no time
To hold it in
Can you breathe really breathe?
Step back and breathe
You're still here. What are you waiting for?
Think let the stillness take your soul
Be the lake below the glacier
Be as clear with self control then
Heave let the effort stretch you higher
May you dare to live your epic
And may it forge you in its fire then
Dream, fall in love with the unknown
But get your boots right on the gravel
and struggle cheerfully alone then
Breathe take your shadow off of the wall... take your shadow off the wall
Can you breathe really breathe?
Fill your lungs again
One more time there's no time
To hold it in
Can you breathe really breathe?
Step back and breathe
You're still here. So why are you waiting? Oh yeah you've got another
chance...
So breathe, in the unknown, and get your boots right on the gravel,
cheerfully alone
then cry cause it feels so god damned good
when the salt has lost its savor
Chorus
