Breath

Skies open. Cries broken. I'm hoping this whole thing is whole
It is all illusion or delusion. I can't tell if I'm just a pawn or a king

I'm stuck in a sinking ship. Just another reason for mercy
I'm stuck in a sinking ship, so bring me down. Just bring me down

And now I'm caught breathing
If even just for a moment, I am freely taking in this air that's rightfully leaving
I'm overtaken
All that's left is the melody
I'm barely breathing, barely living
All I see is an empty corpse going into the night

All has quickly been overgrown
And still there is nothing known but a few arrangements of matter
Where is the purpose? What is the purpose?

I've gotten to thinking. Just another reason for mercy
This isn't a sinking ship. It's sinking in. It's sinking in

And now I'm caught breathing
If even just for a moment, I am freely taking in this air that's rightfully leaving
I'm overtaken
All that's left is the melody
I'm barely breathing, barely living
All I see is an empty corpse going into the night
