Oh sweet lungs don't fail me now
|
Your burning has turned into fear
|
That trails me in my every step, I'm moving quick but you're always on my heels
|
|
Just one more breath, I beg you please
|
Just one more step, my knees are weak
|
My heart is sturdy but it needs you to survive
|
My heart is sturdy but it needs you
|
|
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
|
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need
|
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
|
My body needs a reason to cross that line
|
Will you carry me there one more time?
|
|
Steady lungs, don't fail me now
|
I feel you bursting but you won't let me die
|
Fill me up with every step
|
I'm feeling sick, but I'm leaving it behind
|
|
Just one long breath I beg you please
|
Just one more step you are not weak
|
My legs are sturdy but they need you to survive
|
My heart is sturdy but I need you
|
|
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
|
And know that you are strong enough to handle what I need
|
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
|
My body needs a reason to cross that line
|
Will you carry me there once more?
|
|
I have reason to believe that I have victories to taste
|
I can feel them on my teeth, upon my lips and in my chest
|
I can roll them on my tongue, they are more supple than defeat
|
I feel the tension in my lungs and every move is fueled by my resolve to
|
|
Breathe, don't you want to breathe?
|
I know that you are strong enough to handle what I need
|
My capillaries scream, there's nothing left to feed on
|
My body needs a reason to cross that line
|
Will you carry me there one more time?
