To live life in its fullest To taste the grapes of joy To drink their wine in glasses To feel the sweet drops, And enjoy. To be enchanted, Drunken with delight, To see the brightness of the stars, During the dark, mysterious, cold night… I dream of happiness and laughter, Of rainbows shining in the sky I dream my tears are turning into roses. They're dropping on my pillow as I cry. I dream of green fields, and I'm running I feel the wind stroking my cheeks. It dries my tears and softly whispers: "You must break free of all your fears". I close my eyes and I am swallowed. Consumed, By a gigantic salty wave And I am floating, not resisting, I'm only trying to be brave… Inside the sea, deep in the darkness I see my past, my present and my dreams, And there's a voice, floating beside me, It tells me: "nothing's as it seems". At times I'm chocking, and I'm drowning I'm praying for the coziness of death, But when it doesn't come, I realize that All I need, Is a deep breath.

Breath
To live life in its fullest To taste the grapes of joy To drink their wine in glasses To feel the sweet drops, And enjoy. To be enchanted, Drunken with delight, To see the brightness of the stars, During the dark, mysterious, cold night… I dream of happiness and laughter, Of rainbows shining in the sky I dream my tears are turning into roses. They're dropping on my pillow as I cry. I dream of green fields, and I'm running I feel the wind stroking my cheeks. It dries my tears and softly whispers: "You must break free of all your fears". I close my eyes and I am swallowed. Consumed, By a gigantic salty wave And I am floating, not resisting, I'm only trying to be brave… Inside the sea, deep in the darkness I see my past, my present and my dreams, And there's a voice, floating beside me, It tells me: "nothing's as it seems". At times I'm chocking, and I'm drowning I'm praying for the coziness of death, But when it doesn't come, I realize that All I need, Is a deep breath.
