[Intro]

I will keep you alive


[Verse 1]

Dark clouds above you

Soaring on the sky like the breath of our dying days

I know this world can spin you around

Faster than your heart can stand its ground

You always had the world on your shoulders

And above you carried the clouds

But you can't keep your head under water

And still expect us to hear your despair

Hear my voice through the discord


[Chorus]

Breathe in, breathe out

Even though it hurts on the inside

I know that here at the end of the road

Your love will shine on

Chin up, stay strong

Never let the world tell you wrong

I know that here at the end of the road

Your spark will shine through


[Verse 2]

The fluid in your lungs weigh you down like an anchor of death

You must reach up for the surface

I know this world has darkened you

Carry on the light in your eyes, I will guide you back

You are not alone

The sound of your innocence drowns tonight

Let it immerse to the discord

The surface of life will reflect our lights

It's the essence for bringing you back


[Bridge]

As the water fills your lung with despair you sink to a bottomless hole of depression

The choirs of chastity sings your name, but beneath the surface, you cannot hear

And I know it's hard to look up when the world stares you back

But if you follow the sound of absolution, you will find your feet on a solid ground

And I will sweep my arms around you and keep you safe for as long as you need me to

And as your heavy heart sinks to the bottom, I know that life will lead the way

Life will guide you home


[Chorus]

Breathe in, breathe out

Even though it hurts on the inside

I know that here at the end of the road

Your love will shine on

Chin up, stay strong

Never let the world tell you wrong

I know that here at the end of the road

Your spark will shine through


[Outro]

Don't speak a word of you letting go

'Cause I know you will make it through

Don't close the light that will carry you

'Cause I know you will make it through

Breathe in, breathe out
