The Loom - Breath lyrics

There is a selling point for war and tragedy It keeps us always wanting more We live for promises of gold Tainted by the distress of being second best This is the time for giving up and letting go Of everything you'd live to regret There is not shelter here Just pain and sweat and solace It makes us who we are And so we grow…and so we grow and progress Head above the world, feet beneath us fail Until we learn to swim the waves crash down our throats Take a second breath Believe you're never coming back As the last light lingers every breath you took comes rushing in And we find ourselves quiet… Every breath you took comes rushing in And so we grow in spite of holding on, in spite of letting go In spite of always wanting more Air expands, we struggle, we falter, we decide We'll never return…and so we grow and progress Head above the world, feet beneath us fail Until we learn to swim the waves crash down our throats Take a second breath Believe you're never coming back As the last light lingers every breath you took comes rushing in With all this oxygen, we'll breath the world in With no destination…nowhere to begin With all this oxygen, we'll breath the world in With no destination…nowhere to begin We'll breathe the world in
