Imelda May - Breathe lyrics
[Imelda May - Breathe lyrics]
Uprooted me, hung from the loop of the tree
Top of the world where I can see you
Lead in my hand punctured the skin
Poisoned the blood that was running within
Down, down on my knees
Where I will weep as my head topples down
At the hands of the cheap oh, what to do?
Oh, what to do? Oh, what to do?
Breathe, breathe breathe, breathe
Growin' up, throwin' up
You throttle us choking and smokin' us
Puff cough spit
The ash of the fed as you fled
We burned, you burned as you buried the dead
Oh, what to do? Oh, what to do?
Oh, what to do? Oh, what to do?
Breathe, breathe brеathe, breathe
Brеathe, breathe breathe, breathe
A purple heart once gave you eyes
At 17 we tripped the light
You saw the life, we danced the breeze
I remember you, don't forget about me
Don't forget about me don't forget to
Breathe, breathe breathe, breathe
Lead in the air as you drive around town
In the rain complaining you can't get around
Is the sky getting lower or
Are you getting higher
Your mind's getting smaller as
Time's ticking by
Breathe, breathe what to do? What to do? Oh
What to what to do? Breathe
Top of the world where I can see you
Lead in my hand punctured the skin
Poisoned the blood that was running within
Down, down on my knees
Where I will weep as my head topples down
At the hands of the cheap oh, what to do?
Oh, what to do? Oh, what to do?
Breathe, breathe breathe, breathe
Growin' up, throwin' up
You throttle us choking and smokin' us
Puff cough spit
The ash of the fed as you fled
We burned, you burned as you buried the dead
Oh, what to do? Oh, what to do?
Oh, what to do? Oh, what to do?
Breathe, breathe brеathe, breathe
Brеathe, breathe breathe, breathe
A purple heart once gave you eyes
At 17 we tripped the light
You saw the life, we danced the breeze
I remember you, don't forget about me
Don't forget about me don't forget to
Breathe, breathe breathe, breathe
Lead in the air as you drive around town
In the rain complaining you can't get around
Is the sky getting lower or
Are you getting higher
Your mind's getting smaller as
Time's ticking by
Breathe, breathe what to do? What to do? Oh
What to what to do? Breathe
