Breath - Anna Nalick





2 am and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake,
''can you help me unravel my latest mistake?
I don't love him, winter just wasn't my season''.
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
like they have any right at all to criticize,
hypocrites, you're all here for the very same reason.

'Cause jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
and life's like and hourglass glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind buttung girl.
So cradle your head in your hands

And breath, just breathe.
Oh breath, just breathe.

May he turned 21 on the base at ForT Bliss
''Just a day'' he said down to the flask in his fist.
Ain't been sober since maybe October of last year.
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,
but my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles.
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it.

'Cause you can't jumt the track, we're like cars on a cable
and life's like an hourglass glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind button boys.
So cradle you head in your hands

And breathe, just breathe.
Oh breathe, just breathe

There's a light at each end of this tunnel,
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you'd only try turning around.

2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me,
Threatening the life it belongs to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to

But you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand.
and breathe, just breathe
woah breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe.

Swimming by Florence + The Machine



Your songs remind me of swimming                                                                                             
which I forgot when I started to sink.                                                
Drank further away from the shore                                                             
and deeper into the drink.

Sat on the bottom of the ocean,
a stern and stubborn rock,
cause your songs remind me of swimming
but somehow I forgot.

I was sinking, now I'm sunk,
I was drinking and now I'm drunk.
Cause your songs remind  me of swimming,
but somehow I forgot.

I tried to remember the chorus,
I can't remember the verse,
cause that song that sent me swimming
is now the lifejacket that bursts.

Rotting like a wreck on the ocean floor,
sinking like a siren that can't swim anymore.
Your songs remind me of swimming,
but I can't swim anymore.

Pull me out the water, cold and blue.
I open my eyes and see that it's you.
So I dive straight back in the ocean.
So I dive straight back in the ocean.

Take a deep breath,
suck the water in my chest.
Take a deep breath,,
suck the water in my chest,
I cross my fingers, and hope for the best.

Then all of a sudden, I heard a note.
It started in my chest and ended in my throat.
Then I realised, then I realised,
then I realised I was swimming.
Yes I was swimming.
And now I'm swimming,
yes I am swimming.

Your songs remind me of swimming,
which I forgot when I started to sink.
