Rusted teeth
A broken smile that’s weeping
You’re running scared
But scared is what keeps you breathing
I see your face dripping down
Awash between your fingers
And in this place where you’re staring down
A silence often lingers

Your heart it beats
With thunderous drums and ringing
The sirens scream
And you know what they’re seeking
You pray for wings of down and tar
To lift you up and over
But instead of wings you’re left with scars
Those failed attempts left over

Breathe
Just try and breathe
Come on and breathe
Calm down and breathe

Your hand it shakes
Betraying nerves unwaivered
By what it takes
To seek the thing your there for

And what you want
Won’t be all you get
When craving fame and glory

Cause it’s what you want
And it’s what you’ll get
And that’s the end of story

Breathe
Just try and breathe
Come on just breathe
Calm down and breathe

You better run away
You better run ‘cause they’ll hunt you down
