Breathe (Live From Somerville Theatre Boston)16th of June, nine-oh-five, door bell rings
Man at the door says if I want to stay alive a bit longer
There’s a few things I need you to know
Three
Coming from a long line of traveling sales people on my mother’s side
I wouldn’t buy just anyone’s cockatoo
So why would I invite a complete stranger into my home
Would you?
These days are better than that
These days are better than that
Every day I
Die again and again I’m reborn
Every day I
Have to find the courage
To walk out into the street
(With) arms out
Not knowing defeat
Neither down nor out, hey
There’s nothing you have that I need
I can breathe
Breathe, love
16th of June, Chinese stocks are going up
And I’m coming down with some new Asian virus
Ju Ju man, Ju Ju man
Doc says you’re fine, or dying, please
Nine-oh-nine, St. John Divine
On the line , my pulse is fine
But I’m running down the road like loose electricity
While the band in my head plays a striptease
The roar that lies
On the other side of silence
The forest fire
That is fear so deny it
Walk out into the street
With our arms out
The people we meet
Are neither down nor out, hey
There’s nothing you have that I need
I can breathe
Breathe, love
(Sugar babe)
(Oh, need soul)
(Ooo yeah, give me a soul)
We are people borne of sound
The songs are in our eyes
Gonna wear them like a crown
Yo-oh-ho-oh
Walk out, into a sunburst street
Sing your heart now, sing your heart Massachusetts
I’ve found grace inside a sound
I found grace, it’s all that I found
Soon I breathe
Breathe, love
Breathe
I can breathe
Thanks to P-Diddy for the correction
