U2 - Breathe
16th of June, 9:05, doorbell rings,
man at the door says
"If you want to stay alive a bit longer,
there's three things I need you to know,
three!"
Coming from a long line of travelling sales people on my mother's side
I wasn't gonna buy just anyone's cockatoo,
so why would I invite a complete stranger into my home?
Would you?
These days are better than that
These days are better than that
Every day I die again and again I'm reborn
Every day I have to find the courage
To walk out into the street
With arms out, got a love you can't defeat
Neither down or out
There's nothing you have that I need,
I can breathe, breathe now
16th of June, Chinese stocks are going up
And I'm coming down with some new Asian virus
Ju Ju man, Ju Ju man
Doc says you're fine or dying, please
9:09, St John divine on the line, my pulse is fine
When I'm running down the road like loose electricity,
Or the band in my head plays a striptease. The roar that lies, on the other side of silence,
The forest fire that is fear so deny it
Walk out into the street,
Sing your heart out.
The people we meet,
will not be drowned out.
There is nothing you have that I need,
I can breathe, breathe now
We are people born of sound,
The songs are in our eyes.
Born to wear them like a crown, oh.
Walk out into the sunburst street
Sing your heart out,
Sing my heart out.
I found grace inside the sound,
I found grace, it's all that I found.
And I can breathe, breathe now.
