lyrics

There’s a silence that brings me here again to soften my heavy tread.
There’s a power source beneath our skin, you can use it if you care.
There’s an energy force that holds me here. Gravity seeks revenge. But it’s the currency that worries me. It’s holding out a hand. Breath of Man. It’s the hard and fast, the push and pull that signify a place. But the smoke creeps up, heavy stranglin’ limbs (and) wraps its legs around your waist. Your tiny human lungs and weak beatin’ hearts. Give your body to the race. Soil and bones with a sun in gold – she exhales a hurricane. Breath of man. Breath of man Breath of man Breath of man. Breath in breath out, fog the window up - finger help within the frame. It’s gone too far we’ve burnt our bridges down. Fall before the mammals’ grave. Inhale, stand tall, line up and wait. The rank decides upon your fate. Your brittle lungs hold less then you said they would, fall in line behind the whale. Breath of man. Breath of man Breath of man Breath of man. LEFT, Right, RIGHT, Left. Don’t go closing your eyes. You can try marry the moon but you still need the light. Breath of man. Breath of man Breath of man Breath of man. Can’t you see the faults, you’ve let your morals slip. Took the prize before the race. It’s not up to me but this rock you see, for she owns our greedy race. And the breath of man. The small breath of man. Breath of man.
