Uncut Pages - Other Air Lyrics

No gentle introduction, I'm swept through the gate
Emerging like a newborn - an underground animal
I can't decipher what is written here
Nothing resolves this sudden aphasia

For I am breathing other air
My lungs fill double size
To hold everything from here to there
It cannot be undone
This great expansion

I smile blankly at your leading comments
Can you see through me? Too polite to say
So you keep giving, expecting the same back
I could meet you halfway

For I am breathing other air
My lungs fill double size
To hold everything from here to there
It cannot be undone
This great expansion

I am erratic
Picked up, put down again
Handle me like porcelain
Somebody else's child

I am erratic
Picked up, put down again
Handle me like porcelain
Somebody else's child

For I am breathing other air
My lungs fill double size
To hold everything from here to there
It cannot be undone

Oh, I am breathing other air
My lungs fill double size
To hold everything from here to there
It cannot be undone
This great expansion
