lyrics

B R E A T H E

Sitting and watching
Silver linings on clouds
I am ever hopeful
But it's not for me

Feel the sunlight
And I hear the laughter
That's my dream
But it's not for me

I make faces out of trees
Clouds are great monsters
In the sky
Bearing down on me claw like
Hands are reaching out
I need the sun to warm my soul
Drug I need to lift
And make me whole

Only life as it is
Imprisoned in this body
My heart is good
But they don't see me
I watch the rain fall
Just to ease anxiety
It seems so fresh and pure and
I think that's just like me

Searching for sanity
In every day places and in
Faces that surround me
Help me to breathe
Feel what it's like to be me
And set me free

I dream of running through the fields
I feel the wind flow through my hair
Warm sunlight beating down on me
Spirits rising high
Too soon I wake again to find
Life I want for me has been denied

Only life as it is
Imprisoned in this body
My heart is good
But they don't see me
I watch the rain fall
Just to ease anxiety
It seems so fresh and pure and
I think that's just like me

Searching for sanity
In every day places and in
Faces that surround me
Help me to breathe
Feel what it's like to be me
And set me free
