| Filled my sons with fear and shame
|
| Chased by visions of Jesus
|
| And in my dreams consumed by flames
|
| But I still believe in angels
|
| Even as they watch me whither away
|
| Please just give me one last breath
|
| Before I pass from this place
|
| One last breath for the wicked
|
| One last breath for the sin
|
| One last breath for the lost, the nameless
|
| And those that I’ve forgotten
|
| And one last breath to ease the darkness
|
| In those I love when I’m gone
|
| One last breath to say goodbye
|
| Please don’t mind me as I linger on Don’t mind me as I linger on.
|
| And I still believe in angels
|
| And footsteps in the snow
|
| And I still believe in the goodness of Man
|
| Despite the evil in my world
|
| And I still believe in love
|
| Though I’m happy to be free of the pain
|
| But please just give me one last breath
|
| Before I pass from this place
|
| One last breath for the wicked
|
| One last breath for the sin
|
| One last breath for the lost, the nameless
|
| And those that I’ve forgotten
|
| One last breath for the beauty
|
| For the sunset
|
| And the sorrow
|
| One last breath for our children |
| We leave burdened with our tomorrows |
