Lyrics

Breathe

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

You were hungry for life

Then you took mine

Left me so hollow

And I was eager to play

To give you all of me

For what I will never know

Well I'll rest my eyes

And I'll let the earth breathe

And I'll bide my time

I'll let the earth breathe

You wiped the smile from our face

Our saving grace

Our lasting passion

And with a knife in our soul

We realize

We will not feel it

Well I'll rest my eyes

And I'll let the earth breathe

And I'll bide my time

I'll let the earth breathe

Well it's all I am

And it makes me feel at home

And I must be mad

And I must not care at all

Well I want my life

And I feel it taking on

'Cause it left me here

And it left me all alone

Well I'll rest my eyes

I'll let the earth breathe

And I'll bide my time

I'll let the earth breathe

Well I'll rest my eyes

I'll let the earth breathe

And I'll bide my time

I'll let the earth breathe
