Breathing

The silence knocks me down
It's lonely like the sound
Of creaking floors when hard wind
Hits an empty house

I barely stuck around
To see that things work out
To see that 17 was just
An overcrowd

Now I'm standing still for once
And I found me in someone
And I'm walking down my road
And it finally feels like home

So I'll keep writing songs like warning calls
Hoping you might hear 'em
We'll try and move on, but when night calls
We know there's no chance of healing

'Cause it ain't dead if it's breathing
No, it ain't dead if it's breathing

The clock is ticking down
The shoulder's merging now
And still, I think some way
We're gonna work it out

'Cause I'm holding on to you
Knowing it feels true
But you gotta pack things up
If the crowd is leaving too

Still, I'll keep writing songs like warning calls
Hoping you might hear 'em
We'll try and move on, but when night calls
We know there's no chance of healing (hm)

'Cause it ain't dead if it's breathing (hm)
No, it ain't dead if it's breathing

But I'm standing still for once
And I found me in someone
And I'm walking down my road
But it finally feels like home
