lyrics

WE JUST BREATHE

And stolen like the blazes in the water flavoured wonders
and the game goes round again,
and we all get into seperate cars
and journey down a point of no return 'til then.
Oh and I'm going out tonight and I'm gonna
Stand up and fight.

"It's only the same game." We always say
and now held against the light
The rain comes down and plays my heart but -
Won't let it happen,
Won't let it wash it all away.

Over the hills and far away were the lives
Where the crazy world lived and the dangerous places.
And get some of this - an old man - stealing
Just to make a living - at 84.
And there is a backslide running against the weather.

Well nobody's perfect under the skin,
When somebody's raised the standard
The trick is knowing where the hell to begin but
Strange things will happen - when you
Let it all disappear.

Oh and I tried so hard to make a difference,
I tried all the things I knew what never to say.
I loaded my dice - and fell into war.

Too lonely to play the game
you give it up and you fall.
Too lonely to stand around
when you've nothing left at all.
Oh and it's nice to be wanted
and it's nice to be free,
Most of the time we just breathe.
