Take a Deep Breath

I'm taking the first step out
On a balmy summer day
The fresh air rushes in
Like nostalgia coming back
Coming back from a time when we could relax
Coming back from a time before
Before we dug ourselves into this hole
But you've got to know
That we can go back

We're breathing out the last two years of breathing in
It's the deepest breath I've ever taken
We're breathing now
And never again will I say
This is not who I am

I've been down in this ocean
For way too long
And when I finally reach the surface
To take a deep breath
It feels like the first time
I opened my eyes to the blinding sunlight
It feels like, it feels like
The first time you came home
So get in the car and drive
Farther than we've ever gone before

We're breathing out the last two years of breathing in
It's the deepest breath I've ever taken
We're breathing now
And never again will I say
This is not who I am

The sun starts to rise over the park in back yard
And I am perfect where I am
In the songs in my head
In the memories we'll tell our kids
Before they make their own

We're breathing out the last two years of breathing in
It's the deepest breath I've ever taken
We're breathing now
And never again will I say
This is not who I am
Not who I am
We're breathing now
We're breathing now
This is now who I am
