Lyrics
Free To 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.
So why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
If only we were free to breathe
And why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
Imagine how good we could be
We like to drink with our feet on the fire
We like to argue the meaning of life
Like brothers, we know how to fight
It's on our shoulders to set the world right
What's the difference if we disagree?
Is heaven above? Is hell underneath?
Doesn't change the news on the streets
Doesn't bring us closer to peace
So why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
If only we were free to breathe
So why should I believe that everything will be alright?
That everything will be alright
Imagine how good we could be
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah
Woah
What kinda father leaves his kids in the rain?
What kinda God would not explain?
If this life is all that we get
You better hope something good comes next
The world is changing
Can you feel the tension?
If you're not angry, then you must not be listening
The world is changing
Can you feel the tension?
If you're not angry, you must not be listening
