Tunnels

(album: The Stories We Tell Ourselves - 2017)

In the tunnels of life
We hold our breath we close our eyes
Stiff as a board until the other side
We fill our lungs and we pray for light
We fill our lungs and we pray for light

I will make it through this
Digging deep, sinking in
I'm done with everything holding, holding me down
I will make it through this
There's a time to die and a way to live
I'm not going out like this

Always smile and pretend
We wanna give up, we wanna give in
When hopelessness is content, yeah
We feel our worlds caving in
We feel our worlds caving in

I will make it through this
Digging deep, sinking in
I'm done with everything holding, holding me down
I will make it through this
There's a time to die and a way to live
I'm not going out like this, like this, no

We are the night, we are the dream
We are everything we need
Just breathe, just breathe
We are the strength down to the bone
We got the grip that shapes the mold
We make our own, we make our own

It's all risk to never regret
Taking every chance we get to make our own, to make our own

I will make it through this
Digging deep, sinking in
I'm done with everything holding, holding me down
I will make it through this
There's a time to die and a way to live
I'm not going out like this, like this, no

I gasp for air, it's getting thin
I'm blacking out, and shedding skin
As I transform, I believe
I feel the light lifting me

Just breathe
Just breathe
Just breathe
