 C   Dm   Em   Fx2
C Dm Em F (goes trough this part)
Between two lungs it was released
The breath that passed from you to me
It flew between us as we slept
That slipped from your mouth into mine
It crept between two lungs
It was released
The breath that passed from you to me
It flew between us as we slept
That slipped from your mouth into mine
It crept
G'cause it was trapped
FTrapped between two lungs
GIt was tFrapped between Gtwo lungs
CGoDmne Emare Fthe days of begging
The days of theft
No more gasping for a breath
The air has filled me head to toe
And I can see the ground far below
I have this breath and I hold it tight
And I keep it in my chest with all my might
I pray to god this breath will last
As it pushes past my lips
