Matthew Mayfield - How to Breathe lyrics
rate meFace against the wind
Dusty roads and concrete skin
Tracing back the lines
Choosing forms I've left behind
Spinning like a stone
The ever ebb and flow of the free-falling leaves
Yeah, I'm afraid I can’t change the beat
Every bend, every break
All the times I’ve lost my way
All the stains, all the scars
Oh my torn up paper heart
The back and forth, push and pull
It's carved a curse inside my soul
Yet I believe
That this tug-of-war has taught me how to breathe
The secrets that I keep
Burning holes inside of me
Staring up the ghost
Rumblings won't leave me alone
Time is the traitor
And I am the taker of lost memories
Yeah, I’m afraid I can't change
Let it be
Every bend, every break
All times I’ve lost my way
All the stains, all the scars
Oh, my torn up paper heart
The back and forth, the push and pull
It's carved a curse inside my soul
Yet I believe
This tug-of-war has taught me how to breathe
Instrumental
I’ve seen it all
Scattered ashes of myself
A worn out wishing well
I hear the call
That Alabama sky
Lifts me up and brings me life
Holds me close
Every bend, every break
All times I’ve lost my way
All stains, all the scars
Oh my torn up paper heart
The back and forth, the push and pull
It's carved a curse inside my soul
Yet I believe
This tug-of-war has taught me how to breathe
This tug-of-war has taught me how to breathe
This tug-of-war has taught me how to breathe
