Lyrics Breathe - David Gray

Breathe

Wake, wake and the moment’s gone
Wake, wake and the moment’s gone
Wake, wake and the moment’s gone
Wake, wake and the moment’s gone
And then the door bell rings
Somebody asks you
Could you spare a little time
To feel the weight that’s mine
To lower down your guard
Yeah that your heart gets snagged
Caught in the wheels and dust dragged
Dangled o’er the edge
Breathe
You feel you’re in too deep
So offer up some crumb and drop it in the tin
Then slither back within
Your crenulated wealth
Your educated self
Your family, your rude health
And all the joy it brings
And aren’t we forgetting something?
Feet out on the ledge, feet out on the ledge,
Breathe, Breathe, Breathe, Breathe…
And in the heat of noon
It finds you like some dog
Got parked up in a field
Medically sealed
Scratching at the wind shield
And howling at the glass
And anyone might walk past
Were you not aware?
Were you not aware?
Were you not aware?
Breathe…
