Breathe

I’m coming up for air

This chaos burns

Like fire breathing waves

Of sweet discontent

The door is open, don’t shut it or

We’ll fall from grace

 

A heart that hurts

Is a heart that works

Lyrics always whisper

Sweet nothings

To ease the time

Clouds cooling

Smoldering embers

 

Music is the voice

For those who’s tongues

Are tied

How we see one another

Saying yes we’re still here

Our show must go on

Unanimous or not

One step after another
